One at a time, flatten each by chopping and spreading the meat with light strokes of your chefs knife. Season each with salt, pepper and 1/2 teaspoon of the shallots. Blend into the meat, chopping and turning it as you shape the portions into 4 1/2 to 5-inch round patties, 1/4-inch thick. Toast the hamburger buns and distribute them to your guests. Suggest that they dress the bottom halves of their rolls as they wish while you cook the burgers. Lightly dust the surface of a large, hot saute pan, with salt. When the pan is very hot, but not smoking, lay a patty in the pan. Rapidly add a second burger. Brown the meat, about 20 seconds. Turn patties to other side. Cook until done, about 1 minute. Remove cooked burgers to a warm platter. Repeat process with 2 remaining burgers. Place finished burgers onto guests buns as quickly as possible so they can add their finishing touches.

I make these burgers with caramelized onions and sharp Cheddar cheese. I serve them on brioche buns and eat them plain. Hubby likes to add lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, and more fresh onions! With or without all of the topping, they are delicious.

FRIED ONION BURGER



Fried Onion Burger image

This burger was born in Oklahoma out of Depression-era resourcefulness: In the 1920s, cooks at El Reno's Hamburger Inn used onions to stretch hamburger meat. That location has closed, but you can try a version at other El Reno restaurants like Johnnie's Hamburgers & Coneys, Sid's Diner and Robert's Grill. To make one yourself, smash at least half an onion into each patty.

Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 fried onion burgers

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil, plus more as needed
2 onions, very thinly sliced (preferably on a mandoline)
8 slices American cheese
4 hamburger buns
Ketchup, mustard and/or pickle slices, for topping

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250˚ F. Mix the beef with 1 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a large bowl, then form into 8 balls.
  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 of the beef balls and slightly flatten with a metal spatula. Place a handful of the sliced onions on each patty (you'll use about a quarter of the onions for 2 patties - it will seem like a lot!) and flatten the beef into 1/4-inch-thick patties, pressing the onions into each burger. Cook until browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Carefully flip the burgers along with the onions and cook until the onions are browned and tender, about 2 more minutes. Flip the burgers again, along with the onions, and top each with a slice of cheese. Cover and continue cooking until the cheese melts, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Transfer to a baking sheet and keep warm in the oven until serving.
  • Repeat with the remaining beef and onions to make 8 burgers total, adding more vegetable oil to the skillet if needed. Serve 2 burgers on each bun with ketchup, mustard and/or pickles.
