Guacamole Burgers on the Blackstone were the highlight of our weekend cookout. We fired up the griddle, threw down some seasoned beef patties, and stacked them high with melted cheese, guacamole, and fresh salsa. These burgers were gone in minutes and no one left the table hungry.

If you’re looking to level up your burger game, this one’s a must. It’s everything you love about a classic smash burger, plus bold, fresh flavor in every bite.

How to Make Guacamole Burgers on the Blackstone

Seasoned ground beef patties on parchment.

Form the patties from the ground beef and season both sides with Out Grilling SPG Seasoning.

Heat your Blackstone griddle to medium heat and sear the patties, smashing them down firmly with a spatula. Sprinkle more SPG on the patties as they cook.

Flip when a crust forms, and cook until just about done. Toast the buns with butter if you’d like.
Top with cheddar and Monterey Jack cheese, letting it melt over the patties. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165° using a digital meat thermometer.
Remove from the griddle.

Create a Burger Topping Bar: Place cheesy burger patties on a platter with a bowl of pico de gallo, homemade guacamole, lettuce and any other toppings you would like.

Serve Guacamole Burgers with onion strings, Grilled Mexican Street Corn or tortilla chips.

Recipe Notes

Storage: Keep leftover burger patties in an airtight container for up to 3 days in the refrigerator.
Reheat: Cook patties in a skillet over medium heat with about 1-2 tablespoons water, covered, until warmed through.
Stovetop Instructions: Use a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat to sear and smash the patties just like on the griddle. Follow the same steps for flipping, melting cheese, and assembling.
