Onion Burgers
- 1 pound ground chuck
- 2 onions, shaved (use a mandoline or a very sharp knife to make the thinnest possible slices)
- American or pimento cheese
- 6 buns, split
- Mustard
- Place a heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
- Leave it there for 5 minutes.
- Loosely gather a handful of ground beef and slip it into the pan.
- Repeat 6 times.
- The burgers should be freeform lumps.
- With the side of a spatula, push the burgers into a semblance of a round.
- After about a minute, pile on all the onions and then, with as much force as you can manage, smash the onions into the meat.
- Again, work the sides of the patties into a semblance of a round.
- Cook another minute and then flip.
- Season with salt.
- Smash the burgers again, hard.
- Place burger on bottom half of the bun and spread with mustard.
- Spread the cheese on top half of the bun and place on the burger.
