Big Mac Smashburger Tacos
Seasoned and smashed beef patties on tortillas with cheese, lettuce, pickles, and a homemade Big Mac sauce make these Big Mac Smashburger Tacos a unique dinner idea and they taste irresistible!A 10 MINUTE RECIPETheseBig Mac Smashburger Tacoscombine two fast food favorites into one epic, mouthwatering dish! Thin, crispy burger patties are smashed right onto your favorite street taco tortillas, then topped with melty cheese, shredded lettuce, pickles, onions, and a drizzle of classic Big Mac-style sauce. Theyre super easy to make and I love when I have another reason to make my homemade Big Mac Sauce (so good yall, its my favorite to use for my Big Mac Salad!)FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:Can I use a store bought sauce instead? Sure! If you dont want to make the homemade Big Mac sauce, you can grab a bottle from the store. Using a store bought burger sauce will speed things up. Walmart makes a burger sauce and so does Kinders that are similar and would work nicely (these are not paid affiliate links.) How do I modify this recipe to use all the tortillas? Since the street tacos tortillas come in a 12 pack and this recipe just makes 8 tacos, youll need another 1/2 pound of meat so you can use all the tortillas in the pack. Can I make Big Mac Smashburger Tacos on a Blackstone? Of course! I think these would be amazing when you make them on a Blackstone or similar flat top grill. Youd follow the same directions. Can I just smash the burgers on the skillet instead? You can also just smash the burger balls directly onto the skillet with shell on top, but I found it easier to get the burger extra flat before smashing.Do what you would like to, either way should work. Why do I need two pans? You dont have to have a second pan on low heat. You can just flip the burger over in the same pan. However, I found that the tortilla can burn quickly if you arent super careful. Using a warming pan to melt the cheese allowed the tortillas to become slightly charred but still pliable so they would hold together when folding in half. How long are leftovers good for? Leftovers can be stored in a container and can be kept in the fridge for up to 3 days. The tortillas may get soggy over time. Freeze leftovers in a freezer safe container for up to 3 months.

I suggest you use a leaner meat for less shrinkageAmerican cheese This is supposed to be like a Big Mac, so American Cheese is what I suggest using, but you could switch things up. Instead of using American cheese, you can use Pepper Jack cheese.
