Fried Onion Burger

lb pound Ground Beef (80/20)

Large Yellow Onion (Thinly sliced)

Salt

Pepper

American Cheese

Hamburger Buns

Tbsp Butter (Melted)

Divide the beef into 4 balls that are approximately 4 oz each. Place them in the refrigerator until you are ready to cook them.

Preheat a griddle or cast iron skillet over medium high heat (approximately 400 degrees F).

Butter the buns and place them on the griddle (or skillet) for 2 minutes to toast them and then set them aside while you prepare the beef.

Evenly place the sliced onions into 4 piles on the griddle (or skillet).  Place the beef on top of each onion pile.  Then top each one with a piece on parchment paper and then firmly press down to smash the beef into a thin patty with either a burger press or a large spatula and then discard the parchment paper.  Season with the patties with garlic salt and the pepper.

Cook the patties for 2-4 minutes until the juices in the beef start to raise to the top and the color starts to change.  Then scrape under the patty to get under all the onions and flip the patty. Once flipped, smash down each patty again with the burger press or spatula so that the juices from the patties will drip down into the onions to give them the best flavor.  Cook for 1 more minute.  Then place a piece of cheese on each of the patties to melt.

Then it's time to assemble your burgers.  Carefully remove the patties from the griddle once the cheese is melted and place them on the buttered buns.

Then the fried onions burgers are ready to enjoy!
