Instructions
- Divide the ground beef into 2 even balls (approximately 3 oz each) and butter one side of each piece of the Rye bread with 1 Tbsp of the butter.
- Melt the remaining butter in a large skillet (or cast iron pan) over medium high heat. Then top the melted butter with the sliced onions. Sauté the onions in the butter until they are caramelized (3-5 minutes). Remove the onions from the skillet and set aside.
- Place the ground beef on the skillet over medium high heat. Put a piece of parchment paper on top of the beef and use a spatula or a burger press to smash the meat into 2 thin patties.
- Let the patties cook until they are browned and crispy (2-3 minutes). Then flip the patties over (do not smash) and cook the other side for 2-3 minutes until it is also browned and crispy.
- Place a piece of the Swiss cheese on each patty and allow it to melt. Then remove the patties from the skillet and set aside.
- Put the bread on the skillet butter side down and toast the bread.
- Then assemble the sandwich. Place one piece of the bread on a plate (toasted side down), top with 1 of the patties, half of the fried onions, then the remaining patty, the rest of the fried onions and top with the 2nd piece of bread (toasted side on top).
- Cut in half and the patty melt is ready to serve and enjoy!
Notes
- You can easily use any of your favorite types of cheese in this recipe if you do not like Swiss Cheese.
- You can use sourdough or artisan bread if you prefer, but Freddies does use Rye Bread in their recipe. These patty melts are best served fresh.
