Sarah's Oklahoma Onion Burger image

Onion burgers are one of America's greatest regional renditions, but be warned--these are diner style, and prepare for those drops of grease, but don't let it scare you. They're so craveable, you may want to eat a second! You do not want to use anything under an 80/20 fat ratio. If you do, they won't be good.

Time 25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons salted butter
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large onion, very thinly sliced
½ teaspoon granulated garlic
1 pound 85% lean ground beef
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon Hamburger Seasoning
½ cup sliced portobello mushrooms
ground black pepper to taste
4 slices Swiss cheese
4 rolls rolls or buns, hamburger, white, enriched, plain

Steps:

  • Heat a skillet over medium heat. Add butter and oil; heat until butter is melted. Add onion and garlic. Cook until onion is soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, divide ground meat into 4 portions and shape into patties. Season with salt and seasoning.
  • Heat a large skillet or flat-top over medium-high heat for a few minutes. Place patties into the hot skillet and smash with a spatula or bacon press. Hold patties down for 30 seconds, then cover each patty with some of the cooked onion. Cook for 2 minutes. Carefully flip burgers, making sure to scrape the browned bits off the skillet.
  • Press down on the flipped patties to sink the onions into the meat.
  • Meanwhile, add sliced mushrooms to the skillet used for the onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Season patties with salt and pepper and place a slice of cheese on each. Cook until burgers have reached the desired doneness, 2 to 4 minutes more. Top each patty with leftover onion and mushrooms and serve on buns.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to my regular burger recipe.

I loved the flavor of this burger, but I found it to be a bit dry. I think I'll add some more mayo next time.

This was one of the best onion burgers I've ever had! The onion flavor was perfectly balanced with the beef, and the sauce was the perfect complement. I will definitely be making this again.
