Here is what you need to do:
You can make your smash burger tacos on a flattop grill or a skillet on a stovetop. Heat the flattop/skillet and spray lightly with non-stick spray.
Season the ground beef with salt and pepper then form into 6 round balls.
Place a tortilla on top of each beef ball. Using a heavy spatula or the palm of your hand, smash the burger down so it spreads across the tortilla and is about ¼ inch thick. You can flip the tortilla and using your fingers work the patty evenly across the tortilla. Make sure you leave a little room around the edge.
Slide the tortilla beef side down onto the flattop/skillet. Let cook for a few minutes then flip it so it is tortilla side down. Top with cheese and cook until the cheese is melted and the tortilla is crisp.
Slide onto a baking sheet, if making them one at a time slide the baking sheet into a warm oven until serving.
Top with toppings of your choice and finish off with burger sauce or whatever you like then fold over like a taco.
