I bought this and returned it because it will rust. I have used cast iron pans for over 30 years so I know how to take care of them, however because the handle on this press is made of wood cleaning and seasoning it is a little more difficult, after all you can't just coat this in oil and throw it in the oven like you would with a cast iron pan.

You should try it. Actually a totally different type of burger. Super crispy thin patties. A nice change of pace sometime. And you don't really squish the moisture out. You squish right when you put the meat on the griddle so there really aren't any juices to squish out yet. Now if you cooked the burger then smashed it, yes that would remove the moisture.

You're not squishing any moisture out, you press the meat when it's still raw. This creates a significantly larger surface area to come in contact with the grill and produce more browning. Now take 2-3 of these and stack them, you have 5-7 times more browned surface area vs a single patty of same weight, so way more flavor.

I still don't understand the whole smash burger craze of the past couple years. Why do people suddenly want to squish all the moisture out of their hamburger's meat?

The only time I have enjoyed a smash burger is when they cook it extra hot so its a fairly crispy patty, and then they stack 3-4 of them on one burger so its the same amount of beef as a regular patty. Most restaurants will not make them this way, they are usually undercooked.

The craze just comes from something new becoming slightly popular and people jumping on the bandwaggon in fear of getting left behind.

Because a thin patty cooks better. I prefer stacking 2-3 over a regular sized patty.

Because business are made on something new even if its something senseless. And over priced. Look at the Lululemon craze. Cheap stuff... made in china... sold at a premium. People showing off their cheap made purses and clothing with style. People wish something different even if it is by smashing a piece of minced beef. That said... burgers do cook well when put under a bit of pressure ... to brown it equally. Not smashing .. but to hold it down just like a panini does. For that aspect this is a good tool. 🙂

according to the Amazon description, it's 2lbs, which is good for forcing contact with the cooking surface if you're using it to get a good sear on meats in a pan.

With a regular patty, when you cook it it will 'ball up'. Some area will cook faster than another, so only the middle will get a nice sear.

With a press you keep more of the patty touching the hot surface resulting in a nicer sear. Don't know if it matters but smashed burgers seem juicier to me also.
