Method

Beef Patty Preparation

Mix Ingredients

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

Form Patties

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties, about 3/4 inch thick.

Caramelizing Onions

Slice Onions

Thinly slice the yellow onions.

Cook Onions

In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until the onions are golden brown and caramelized.

Making Old Fashioned Sauce

Combine Ingredients

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, ketchup, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce until smooth.

Assembling the Patty Melt

Cook Patties

In the same skillet used for the onions, add a little more olive oil if needed and heat over medium-high heat. Cook the beef patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the desired doneness is reached. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of American cheese on each patty to melt.

Toast Buns

While the patties are cooking, butter the outside of the burger buns. In a separate skillet, toast the buns over medium heat until golden brown.

Assemble Sandwiches

Spread a generous amount of the old fashioned sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place the melted cheese patty on top, followed by a portion of caramelized onions. Top with the other half of the bun.
