___ burgers (sandwiches with flattened patties) (5)

I believe the answer is:

smash

(Other definitions for smash that I've seen before include "Break like a glass or cup" , "Ruin; big (success)" , "Destroy violently" , "Violently break into pieces" , "Wreck" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
