Prepare the Special Sauce: In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, yellow mustard, onion powder, paprika, and black pepper. Stir thoroughly until all ingredients are well combined and the sauce is a uniform orange-pink color. Set aside.

Prepare the Patties: Divide the ground beef into 8 equal portions. Take one portion of ground beef and place it in the center of a corn tortilla. Using your hands, firmly press the beef evenly across the entire surface of the tortilla, forming a thin patty that adheres to the tortilla. Season the raw beef generously with salt and black pepper. Repeat with the remaining beef and tortillas.

Cook the Patties: Heat a large non-stick skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil. Once hot, carefully place 2-3 beef-covered tortillas into the pan, beef-side down. Cook for 3-4 minutes, or until the beef is browned and crispy and the tortilla is slightly toasted. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.

Melt the Cheese: Flip the tortillas so the meat side is facing up. Immediately place one slice of American cheese on top of each hot beef patty. Cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and gooey. Transfer the cooked smash burger tacos to a plate or parchment-lined surface. Repeat with the remaining tortillas, adding more cooking oil as needed.

Assemble the Tacos: Once all the smash burger tacos are cooked and the cheese is melted, it's time to assemble. Spoon a generous amount of the prepared special sauce over the melted cheese on each taco. Then, add a portion of the caramelized onions on top of the sauce. Finally, pile a mound of shredded lettuce over the onions.

Serve: Fold each tortilla in half like a taco and serve immediately while warm. Enjoy your crispy, cheesy Smash Burger Tacos!
