Critical Success Points

  • Flatten the patty to paper‑thin thickness
  • Maintain oil temperature at 325°F (do not exceed 400°F)
  • Dip spatula in oil before placing patty to prevent sticking
  • Quickly melt cheese by a second dip in hot oil

Safety Warnings

  • Hot oil can splatter violently – wear goggles and keep a fire‑proof lid nearby
  • Never leave oil unattended; temperature spikes cause dangerous eruptions
  • Keep a Class B fire extinguisher within reach
  • Use heat‑resistant gloves when handling the marble slab and spatula
