ONION BURGERS
Ingredients:
2 large sweet onions, sliced (12 to 16 ounces)
2 tablespoons margarine or melted butter
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons honey
1 pound lean ground beef
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
4 slices Texas toast
4 lettuce leaves
4 tomato slices
Preparing onions
: Place onions in a cooking
pan or on a small piece of aluminum foil. Com-
bine melted margarine, mustard and honey then
drizzle over onions. Cover pan with lid - or fold up
edges of foil and seal with double fold to com-
pletely enclose onions - leaving space for steam
to build. Place pan or foil packet on grill - directly
over medium heat for 15 minutes with the grill
hood up.
Preparing burgers
: While onions are cooking,
combine ground beef, salt and pepper in a
medium bowl and mix well. Shape mixture into
four 3/4 inch burger patties and add to grill,
directly over heat. Grill burgers along with onions
for about 5 minutes then turn burgers. Grill for 8
to 10 minutes more or until no pink remains in
meat, and onions are tender. To serve, toast
both sides of Texas toast on grill. Then top each
slice of Texas toast with lettuce leaf, a burger,
tomato slice and one-fourth of the onion. Sprinkle
with pepper if desired.
A honey and mustard sauce glazes the onion slices as they cook alongside these delicious burgers. For
optimal sweetness, select Vidalia or Walla Walla onions.
Makes 4 open face burgers.
