the brisk stand burger

Ingredients

• Neutral oil
• 1 half large yellow onion, thinly sliced
• 2 teaspoons butter
• 1/4 cup beef broth
• Kosher salt & coarse ground black pepper
• 2/3 pound ground chuck, definitely 80/20 shaped into two beautiful patties
• 1 tablespoon yellow mustard
• 1 tablespoon sriracha
• 2 slices cheddar cheese
• 1 brioche bun
• 2 wooden skewers
• Heat a pan over medium, add a tablespoon of oil & the butter, and when the butter melts put in the onions
• Your goal, should you choose to accept it, is to gently caramelize the onions over the next 15 minutes - it takes a bit, so just be gentle and stir often
• Combine mustard and sriracha in a small bowl - mix to combine and set aside
• Heat griddle to medium, lightly oil and put on the patties - cook on the first side 3 minutes, then flip and add the onions to the top of one of them - cover with a lid one minute
• Remove lid, add the onions to one of them, top both with cheese and cover again
• Cook until done to your liking (this is a perfect time to toast the bun btw) then remove and build:
• Bottom bun, sauce, both patties, top bun - then place a skewer in each half, cut down the middle then carefully put the halves face down on the flattop for one minute
• Remove, eat and rejoice in it's deliciousness
