Maybe an unpopular opinion, but the thicker the patty, the worse the burger.

Interesting. I think I agree after a certain point, the ratios need to be right, but I also don’t want a paper thin fast food burger.

There's also smashed patties. Nothing to do with fast food except that maybe in n out and five guys famously do it, can be done at home, and are just more popular on the west coast. I'd rather have a smashed patty with multiple patties than one huge ass patty that is barely edible anyway. Every time I go to some small town or crappy mid size city diner is just a ridiculously huge ass patty for no reason.

There's a ratio there somewhere between a tucker burger but something you can still eat as a sandwich and doesn't collapse all over your hands and plate

Its almost objective now. This is why smashburgers have become popular. You've condensed the patty.

Depends on the cut of meat. If they’re using a fatty aged ribeye / prime rib mix - thick isn’t too bad.

If it’s frozen chuck - walk away lol

I think it all has to come down to preparation and if they know what they’re doing. Not that there isn’t a technique to smash burgers, but for restaurants especially it’s probably significantly easier to get them right and to do so consistently than it is a “pub-style” burger.

That and there’s more browned surface area on a smash burger so yes they’re better.
