Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Caramelized Onions

    Slice the onion thinly. In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the onions, sprinkle with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden and caramelized, about 20-25 minutes.

  2. 2

    Cook the Bacon

    In the same skillet, cook the bacon until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  3. 3

    Form the Short Rib Patties

    In a bowl, season the ground short rib with salt and black pepper. Form into two patties.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    In the skillet (or grill), cook the patties over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Add the cheddar cheese on top of the patties during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger buns if desired. On the bottom bun, place the lettuce, then the patty with melted cheddar cheese, followed by caramelized onions, crispy bacon, tomato slices, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Serve immediately with your favorite side.
