Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. SECRET BURGER SAUCE
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, yellow mustard, pickle juice, garlic powder, and smoked paprika until completely smooth and creamy. Set aside in the fridge.
2. SMASH IT ON THE TORTILLA
Heat a cast-iron skillet or heavy pan over high heat. Place a ball of ground beef onto a flour tortilla and press/smash it down thin using a burger press or heavy spatula for maximum crispiness. Season generously with salt and pepper.
3. SEAR TO PERFECTION
Place the tortilla meat-side down onto the ripping hot skillet. Cook for 2–3 minutes until the edges are crispy and the beef is perfectly seared with a deep golden crust.
4. TOP & DEVOUR
Flip the taco over, add a slice of American cheese, and cover with a lid to melt. Top with fresh shredded lettuce, diced onions, pickles, and a generous drizzle of your burger sauce. Fold it up and enjoy hot!
