1
Prepare the Onions
Slice the medium onion into rings. Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion rings and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes.
2
Prepare the Beef Patties
In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until just combined. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
3
Prepare the Tomato and Lettuce
While the onions are cooking, wash the lettuce leaves and slice the tomato into thick slices.

4
Cook the Burgers
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and place an ounce of Amish bleu cheese on top of each burger. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes or until the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness.
5
Toast the Buns
During the last minute of cooking, place the burger buns cut side down on the grill to toast them lightly.

6
Assemble the Burger
Once the burgers are cooked, place each patty on the bottom half of a toasted bun. Top with the fire-roasted onions, lettuce leaves, and tomato slices. Cover with the top half of the bun.
