HOW TO MAKE A HOMEMADE FATBURGER
Steps:
- Butter your bun on both half and toast in a pan. This is not done at Fatburger but I like it this way so that's what I do.
- Place the two buns side by side and spread the mayonnaise on the top bun.
- Carefully top the mayonnaise with the shredded lettuce. It has to all sit on top.
- Now heat your grill or pan so that it is as hot as you can get it.
- Place the meat discs on the grill and smash them with a large flat spatula.
- Season generously with salt and pepper.
- Fry for about two minutes and then flip the patties over.
- Season again with salt and pepper and then top each patty with a slice of American cheese.
- When the cheese melts down the side of the patties, your burger will be about medium rare.
- Place one patty with the cheese side down on the bottom bun. Then top with the other patty, again cheese side down.
- Squirt with French's yellow mustard and cover with pickle relish and onions.
- Carefully bring the two halves together and enjoy.
SMASH BURGERS
Now is not the time to cut calories or skimp on salt. Go for ground chuck that is at least 80/20. If you can find a blend with ground brisket or short rib, all the better. The best burger comes with being liberal with kosher salt-it is beef's best friend. -James Schend, Pleasant Prairie, Wisconsin

Steps:
- Place a 9-in. cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Meanwhile, gently shape beef into 4 balls, shaping just enough to keep together (do not compact). , Increase burner temperature to medium-high; add oil. Working in batches, add beef. With a heavy metal spatula, flatten to 1/4- to 1/2-in. thickness; sprinkle each with 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook until edges start to brown, about 1-1/2 minutes. Turn burgers and sprinkle with additional 1/8 teaspoon salt and pepper. Cook until well browned and a thermometer reads at least 160°, 1 minute. Repeat with remaining beef., Serve burgers on buns with toppings as desired.

FATBURGER
Stars love customizing the classic beef Fatburger: Jay Leno takes his with a triple patty. Milla Jovovich prefers her toppings sandwiched between patties in place of a bun. But some Fatburger fans take their obsession to the next level: Queen Latifah, Kanye West and Pharrell Williams have each owned franchises.
