Always a double! I consider a double a single.

That looks delicious!

 

Pardon me, but how is a smash burger different from a hamburger?

Just a slightly different way of cooking - grab a ball of ground beef, place it on the griddle and smash it really thin with the flat of a spatula. Try and get as thin as possible, even a few little lacy holes appearing in the patty. It gives a great crust and is probably my favourite type of burger. I much prefer a stack of a couple of those over a single thicker number. 
 

In the picture above, the two on the left had just been turned so you can see the crust, the others are just about to flip.
