Preparation Steps
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the husked corn and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it starts to char. Let it cool.
- In a large bowl, combine 1/3 cup mayonnaise, lime juice, lime zest, minced garlic, Tajin, chili powder, and salt to taste. Stir in the charred corn, cilantro, scallions, diced jalapeño, and cojita cheese until well combined.
- In a food processor, combine cilantro leaves with pickled jalapeños and 2 tablespoons of their juice. Purée until finely minced, then set aside.
- In a mixing bowl, blend together the remaining mayonnaise, sour cream, ranch seasoning, garlic powder, and salt. Fold in the cilantro mixture, adjusting with lime juice or buttermilk.
- Divide the ground beef into 3.5-ounce portions. Press each portion into a 6” flour tortilla, seasoning with salt and pepper.
- In a griddle or large skillet over high heat, cook the tortillas burger side down for 2-3 minutes. Flip and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until golden.
- Remove the smash burgers from the skillet and top them with a scoop of the street corn mixture. Drizzle with creamy jalapeño sauce.
