Steps:
- In a saute pan, heat oil and saute onions until caramelized, 5 to 10 minutes.
- Toast bread, either on the grill top or toaster.
- In a pan with butter, cook SPAM until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
- Spread your favorite sandwich spread (mustard or mayo) on your toast; I prefer a nice spicy brown mustard. Add SPAM, grilled onions and pickle slices. Add lettuce and tomato or pickled jalapenos if it floats your boat. Sometimes you can switch it up and use RAW ONION, instead of grilled. Go crazy! It's your SPAM; do what you want.
- Serve with American fries and a cold PBR. YES! AMERICA!
BROILED BURGERS WITH SPAM®
Here's a unique recipe that has been in my spouse's family for 3 generations. It was probably created during World War II as a new way to prepare SPAM®, which was widely used in that time of shortages and rationing. These open-faced sandwiches are delicious and economical and are loved by his entire family. They are great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner!

SPAM AND ONION SANDWICHES
Made this for lunch on our packpacking trip. None of the ingredients need refridgerated, so it is easy to take backpacking and camping, etc. I usually horde the little mustard and margarine packets from fast food restaurants if we are hiking in.

TOASTED SPAM SANDWICHES
This is an easy-to-fix sandwich spread using Spam and Velveeta Cheese. My recipe does not call for onions, but some people do like to add chopped onion. I like to use bread instead of buns, because I prefer equal amounts of bread/spread. Use the buns for a bigger sandwich.

Steps:
- Take two pieces of bread and spread on some spicy Deli mustard.
- On a piece of bread, make one layer each of sliced onion, SPAM, Cheddar Cheese, and Tomato.
- Lightly butter the remaining piece of bread and then carefully flip the entire sandwich upside down into a non-stick pan on medium-low heat. Lightly butter the other piece of bread which is now on top.
- Cook covered with a suitable lid over medium-low heat, flipping once after about six minutes, until bread is browned and cheese is melted.
- Sandwiches will be HOT when done so it's best to let them cool on a plate for 5 minutes or so to help avoid burning your tongue or roof of mouth. Grab a knife, some paper towels, a little catsup and ENJOY!
