Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    In a skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of duck fat over medium heat. Add the sliced medium onion and cook until golden brown and caramelized, about 10-12 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. Set aside once done.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Patty

    While the onions are cooking, take the 8 oz CAB beef patty and create a pocket in the center. Place 1 slice of American cheese inside the pocket and seal it well. Season the outside of the patty with salt and pepper.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patty

    In a hot skillet or grill, cook the stuffed patty for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patty reaches the desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Toast

    While the patty is cooking, butter the Texas toast slices on one side. In a separate pan, toast the bread butter-side down until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Patty Lucy

    Once the patty is cooked, place it on one slice of the toasted Texas toast. Add an additional slice of American cheese on top of the patty, then drizzle with lucy sauce. Top with the caramelized duck fat onions and finally place the second slice of Texas toast on top.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Cut the Patty Lucy in half and serve immediately with your choice of sides.
