TikTok made me do it! I saw this smash burger taco recipe on TikTok, originally shared by Chef Brad Prose of Chiles and Smoke, and knew I had to give it a try. If you love tacos and love burgers, you will be blown away by this combination.

I’m always looking for easy week night recipes like my Easy Keto Sausage and Veggie Recipe and Mouthwatering One Pan Meals to make and this trend has become a fan favorite in my home.

Serving a crowd? You could make a fun taco bar with all the toppings for your guests to build their own.
