These are hands down the best cheeseburgers I've ever had! They're juicy, melty, and full of flavor. Have a napkin handy, because you're sure to make a mess of yourself with these amazing burgers! Don't be frightened if this looks like a lot of steps - these burgers cook in no time are super easy to whip up!

Ingredients
For the onions:
- 2 onions diced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
For the burgers:
- 1 pound ground beef 75/25 if possible
- 8 lices American cheese from the deli (not the plastic wrapped kind)
- 4 teaspoons prepared yellow mustard
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 4 hamburger buns store brand
- 4 tablespoons butter
- Pickles, lettuce, tomatoes for topping
For the secret sauce:
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons white vinegar
- 1 teaspoon dill pickle relish
Instructions
To make the onions:
- Heat a medium skillet over medium heat.
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in the skillet and add the diced onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 minutes.
- When the onions are soft and beginning to brown, add 1/4 cup of water and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the water has evaporated. Repeat with the remaining 1/4 cup of water.
- After about 30 minutes of cooking the onions should be golden brown, soft, melty, and pure perfection.
- Sprinkle with salt. Set aside.
To make the sauce:
- While the onions are cooking prepare the secret sauce. Stir together the ketchup, mayo, vinegar, and relish. Set aside.
To make the burgers:
- Heat a griddle or large cast iron skillet to medium.
- Melt the remaining butter on the hot griddle and place the buns, cut side down, on the griddle. Cook until golden brown.
- Spread around 1 tablespoon of the sauce on the bottom of each bun. Set aside.
- Turn the heat to high. While the griddle is heating, form the meat into 8 small balls of meat, loosely compacted.
- Place the balls of meat a few inches apart on the griddle and sprinkle the tops with salt. Let cook one minute.
- Flip the balls over and immediately take a small plate (or flat spatula that doesn't have holes for the meat to squish through) and press the meat flat, forming a thin patty the same diameter as your bun.
- Squirt about 1/2 teaspoon of mustard on each patty. Cook for 1-2 minutes and flip again.
- Immediately place the cheese on each patty and top half of the patties with a heaping spoonful of the onions.
- Cook 1 minute or until patties are cooked through and cheese is beginning to melt.
- Use a spatula to pick up one of the patties without the onions and place it on top of a patty with the onions.
- Let cook for 30 more seconds to meld everything together.
- Remove from griddle to the grilled buns. Top with lettuce, tomato, and pickles, if desired.
Notes
- Double Double means double the meat and double the cheese, so 2 patties and 2 slices of cheese per bun.
- Animal Style means the burgers are griddled with mustard and topped with caramelized onions, pickles, and extra sauce.
