Red White & Blue Smash Burger

Jun 25, 2025 • Tom Jackson

Bold buffalo heat meets creamy blue-cheese coolness in the Red White & Blue Smash Burger, a recipe that turns classic cookout fare into a fireworks-worthy bite. Thin Creekstone Farms Brisket Blend patties are smashed hard and fast on the Fusion GFE75 2-Burner Stainless Steel Teppanyaki Griddle until the edges crisp and caramelize. Each patty is basted in tangy Yo Mama’s Buffalo Sauce, draped with melty white American cheese, then double-stacked over Holme’s Made Dad’s Spicy Garlic Dill Pickles for a crunch of vinegary heat. A cool, house-made blue-cheese dressing ties it all together, giving you a burger that looks like freedom on a bun and tastes unforgettable—perfect for July 4th, game day, or any time you crave maximum flavor with minimal fuss.
