Ingredients
- 2 tablespoon butter
- 1 teaspoon salt or to taste
- 1 teaspoon pepper or to taste
- 2 onions sliced
- 4 burger buns
- 4 burger patties
- 4 blue cheese slices
- 2 large tomatoes sliced
- baby arugula or baby kale
- 4 tablespoon sweet and spicy mustard
Instructions
- Prepare your grill for cooking over high direct heat.
- In a large skillet melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add onions, season with 1/2 tsp each salt and pepper, then cook until crispy.
- Make sure the grill is cleaned and hot before laying down the patties. You might also want to oil the grill first.
- Season the burger patties with remaining salt and pepper. Add the patties to the grill and cook for about 5 minutes per side. DO NOT press on the patties while cooking.
- Lay a slice of blue cheese over each patty for the last 2 minutes of cooking. If you want to grill your burgers buns, add them to the grill now and don't leave them more than 30 seconds.
- Remove everything from grill and assemble the burgers. Spread 1 tbsp of mustard on the bun. Top with some baby arugula or kale, lay the burger patty, tomato slices, crispy onions and top bun.
Notes
- Leftovers are best stored separate. Leave assembly for when you're ready to enjoy your burgers! The arugula, tomatoes, arugula, and buns are best fresh. The patties will be good for 3-4 days in an airtight container in the fridge.
- To reheat, you can pop the patties in the microwave at 30 second intervals until they're heated through. You can also place them in a skillet, covered, over medium heat until they're warm.
- For the onions, you can honestly enjoy these on your burger cold! If you prefer them hot, you can definitely reheat them in the microwave or in a skillet. I would suggest lining your plate with paper towel to microwave them. This will keep them as crisp as possible.
