Instructions
- Form ¼ pound of ground beef into a ball. Use your hands to flatten and shape it into a nice round hamburger patty. Pour about an inch of water in a skillet and heat it to boiling over medium high heat.Cut up a sweet onion into ½” slices and add 1/4 of the onion to the boiling water. Then place the burger in the onion water too.Cook burger about 3 minutes on each side. Add more water if needed so there is always a bit of water in the skillet.Remove the cooked burgers to plate the has a paper towel on it. This will help soak up a little of the extra water. Salt and pepper to taste.
- Butter one side of two slices of bread. Take the two slices of bread (buttered sides on the outside) and sandwich 1-2 slices of cheese, a few slices of bacon, and the cooked burger.Buttered side down, fry the “sandwich” on a flat skillet over low heat. Use a spatula to keep peeking underneath to make sure the butter bread doesn’t burn.When the bread is a nice golden brown, use two spatulas to hold it all together as you carefully flip it over. Brown the other side too!
- Add whatever toppings you’d like!
- Enjoy!!!
