How do you make flat hamburger patties?
Chef's answer
Place the meat in your pan and smash it flat. Press it down very firmly with a spatula. Make each patty as flat as you can. As long as it looks flat, it will cook evenly without ballooning up in the center. This won't work as well on a grill grate since the meat will get pushed straight through its openings.
