Method
Burger Preparation
Form the Patties
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form each portion into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
Add Cheese
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar and a slice of American cheese on each patty, allowing them to melt.
Caramelize Onions
Slice the Onion
Peel and slice the onion into thin rings.
Cook the Onions
In a separate skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes until they are golden brown and caramelized.
Assemble the Burger
Prepare the Bun
Toast the burger buns in a toaster or on the grill until lightly browned.
Add Spread
Spread mayonnaise, ketchup, and mustard on the bottom half of each bun.
Layer the Ingredients
Place a lettuce leaf on each bun, followed by a slice of tomato, then the two cooked patties with melted cheese, caramelized onions, and pickle slices.
Complete the Burger
Top with the other half of the bun and press down gently.
