Oklahoma Onion Burgers

Ever heard of an “Oklahoma Onion Burger”?? Well, I sure hadn’t. Not until I saw them being made on the TV show, “The Great Food Truck Race”, last year! (Or was it the year before?) I don’t remember which season that one aired now, but they sure looked killer-good! Enough to not forget the burger! 😉

They seemed to be extremely popular in Oklahoma and with everyone who tried them, so I knew, as much as I LOVE a good burger, that I had to give this a try, too! 😀

How you make them is just like this. You make a ball and place it onto the grill. Smash it down a little with your sharp spatula, place a handful of thinly sliced onions on top, then press the meat down until thin, smashing the onions into the top. Season it well with salt and pepper to taste. Then leave it be. Do NOT move it. Just let it do it’s thing.
You want to cook this for a nice amount of time, until the bottom is dark browned.



Then, using a sharp spatula, and it must be sharp, (a metal one not a plastic one), you want to scrape underneath to get that gorgeous skin off of the grill working all the way around then all the way underneath in the center to release it. The burger should be most of the way done.

Then flip it over and cook until just almost done. Just a couple of minutes left is all. Top with good ol’ American cheese, one slice or two, and let it melt.

Ingredients

  • canola or vegetable oil, enough to lightly oil pan
  • 1 lb. hamburger
  • 1 - 2 sweet onions, very thinly sliced (about a third of an onion per burger or as you like)
  • salt

coarse ground black pepper

  • 3 - 6 slices American cheese
  • 3 - 6 hamburger buns, steamed or grilled

Toppings Can Include:

  • lettuce (whole leaves, chopped or shredded), tomato slices, sweet or dill pickle slices, mayo, ketchup, A.1. steak sauce, mustard, relish, peperoncini pepper rings, or whatever you like!

Instructions

  1. Get grill pan very hot. Oil grill where burgers are going. Place a ball of meat, (1/3 lb., or ⅙ of a pound for thinner burgers/see note), onto hot grill and smash down a little with a sharp spatula.
  2. Place a small handful of very thinly sliced onions on top, then smash down burger the rest of the way mashing onions into the meat.
