Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prep the Onions

    Slice the onion into thin rings. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat and add the onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Burger Patty

    In a bowl, mix the ground beef with jerk seasoning until well combined. Form into a patty.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burger

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patty for 4-5 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness.

  4. 4

    Melt the Cheese

    In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of pepper jack cheese on top of the burger patty to melt.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    Toast the burger bun lightly if desired. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on the bottom half of the bun. Top with caramelized onions and drizzle with jerk sauce. Place the top half of the bun on and serve.
