The Classic Recipe

Burger Preparation

1. 1

   Prepare the Onions

   Slice the onion into thin rings. In a skillet over medium heat, add a bit of oil and sauté the onions until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.

2. 2

   Form the Patties

   In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and pepper. Divide the meat into two equal portions and form into patties.

3. 3

   Grill the Patties

   Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and place a slice of American cheese on each patty. Cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patty is cooked to your desired doneness.

4. 4

   Assemble the Burger

   Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill. On each bottom bun, layer lettuce, the grilled patty with melted cheese, caramelized onions, slices of tomato, and pickles. Drizzle KGB sauce on top, then cover with the top bun.
