Preparation
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and melt the butter until it’s bubbly.

- Season the beef patty with salt and pepper, then place it in the pan. Cook to your desired doneness, approximately 4-5 minutes per side.
- While the patty is cooking, spread the secret sauce on one side of each slice of bread for flavor.
Assembly
- On the uncoated side of one slice of bread, layer the cooked patty, followed by the caramelized onions and then the cheese.
- Top with the second slice of bread, ensuring the sauce side faces down.
Cooking
- Grill the sandwich in the skillet, pressing down lightly with a spatula, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted (around 3-4 minutes per side).
- Once cooked, slice the sandwich in half and serve hot, allowing everyone to enjoy the melty goodness.
