In this burger-taco mashup recipe, hamburger patties are pressed inside of flour tortillas and grilled on a hot pan yielding perfectly crusted thin and juicy burgers. They are then topped with street corn and a creamy jalapeno ranch sauce in this smash burger tacos recipe. Tip: make the street corn and creamy jalapeno a day or two ahead to make this recipe easier. They stay good in the fridge for up to 4 days.
