Ingredients
- 1 cup caramelized onions click link for recipe
- 8 lices rye bread sourdough bread, or Texas toast
- 2 tablespoons butter softened
- ½ cup burger sauce click link for recipe, or use Thousand Island dressing
- 16 lices Swiss cheese
- 1 pound ground beef 80/20
- 1 tablespoon hamburger seasoning click link for recipe, or use 1 teaspoon salt + 1 teaspoon black pepper instead
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
Instructions
- Start by preparing the caramelized onions, up to 1 week in advance.
- Spread one side of each piece of bread with butter and the other side with burger sauce.
- Place two slices of Swiss cheese on top of the burger sauce on each piece of bread.
- Add caramelized onions on top of half of the bread slices. Set the prepared bread aside.
- Combine the ground beef, hamburger seasoning and worcestershire sauce in a medium bowl. Form the mixture into four hamburger patties that are ¼ inch thick. Make sure they’re thin to make a true patty melt.
- Heat a large skillet on the stove over medium-high heat.
- Preheat an indoor or outdoor grill, or cast iron skillet on the stove, over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the burger patties and cook for 3 minutes per side.
- Remove from the heat and place the patties on top of the caramelized onions, then sandwich the other half of the bread slices topped with sauce and cheese over the burger patties.
- Heat a large skillet, or griddle pan, on the stove over medium heat. Once hot, add the patty melts, and grill for 3-4 minutes, flip with a spatula and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and the cheese is melted. Remove from the heat and serve immediately.
Notes
- You can make the caramelized onions ahead of time and store them in the fridge for up to one week, or the freezer for 3 months. This way, the recipe comes together in just 20 minutes.
- To make this recipe gluten free, use gluten-free bread.
