Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground sirloin

  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

  • 2 medium onions, sliced

  • cooking spray

  • 4 slices Cheddar cheese

  • 4 teaspoons Dijon mustard (Optional)

  • 8 slices rye bread, lightly toasted

Directions

  1. Mix sirloin, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper together by hand in a medium bowl. Form into 4 hamburger patties and wrap in plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator until flavors have melded, 4 hours to overnight.

  2. Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until melted. Add onions and saute until they begin to caramelize, about 15 minutes, reducing heat to medium-low if they seem to be sizzling too much.

  3. Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Place hamburger patties in the skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side, topping each patty with a slice of Cheddar cheese after flipping.

  4. Place patties on toasted rye bread. Top with warm onions, Dijon mustard, and remaining bread.

Cook's Note:

You can use American cheese instead of Cheddar, if preferred.
