Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Ingredients

Caramelized onions:
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds onions (2 large), sliced into 1/2-inch-thick rings
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons seasoned rice vinegar
Burgers:
1/2 pound sliced bacon, frozen 1 hour
1 1/2 pounds ground beef chuck
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
4 to 8 thin slices extra-sharp Cheddar
4 hamburger buns or alternatives such as kaiser or brioche rolls
Accompaniments:
Sliced tomato
Soft-leaf lettuce leaves or baby arugula
Special Equipment
An instant-read thermometer

Steps:

For caramelized onions:
Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until it shimmers, then cook onions with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, covered, stirring occasionally, until golden and softened, 15 to 20 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low, then add vinegar, scraping up the brown bits on bottom of the skillet, and cook, uncovered, stirring, until liquid evaporates, 1 to 2 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer to a small bowl and keep warm, covered.
For burgers:
Prepare grill for indirect-heat cooking over medium-hot charcoal (medium heat for gas; see grilling procedure ).
Meanwhile, cut frozen bacon crosswise into eight sections and distribute evenly in bowl of a food processor, then pulse until finely chopped.
In a large bowl, distribute bacon evenly over beef and drizzle mixture with Worcestershire sauce. Sprinkle evenly with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper.
Combine mixture as gently and thoroughly as possible with your fingers (be careful not to overmix). Form into 4 patties, about 4 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick.
Brush cut sides of buns with butter.
Oil grill rack, then sear patties directly over coals (or lit burner or burners), covered only if using a gas grill, moving to area of grill with no coals (or over shut-off burner) if flare-ups occur, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
Move burgers to area with no coals (or over shut-off burner) and grill, covered, turning once, until they reach 155°F on instant-read thermometer, about 4 minutes total. Top with cheese to taste and heat, covered, until it melts and burgers register 160°F, about 1 minute. Transfer burgers to a clean platter.
Grill buns, buttered side down, until grill marks appear, about 1 minute.
Assemble burgers with buns and accompaniments, topping cheese with caramelized onions.

Tips:

To make the perfect caramelized onions, slice them thinly and cook them slowly over low heat. This will allow them to caramelize without burning.
Be sure to use a good quality ground beef for your burgers. This will ensure that they are juicy and flavorful.
Don't overcook the burgers. They should be cooked until they are just cooked through, or they will become dry and tough.
To assemble the mini burgers, place a slider bun on a plate. Top with a burger patty, a slice of caramelized onion, and a slice of cheese. Add another slider bun on top.
Serve the mini burgers immediately with your favorite toppings, such as ketchup, mustard, mayonnaise, and pickles.

These mini burgers with caramelized onions are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or a quick weeknight meal. With their juicy beef patties, caramelized onions, and melted cheese, these mini burgers are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
