GRIDDLED ONION CHEESEBURGERS WITH SPECIAL SAUCE & GARLIC POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Halve, peel, and finely dice onion. Halve buns. Thinly slice tomato into rounds.
• • Toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, ¾ tsp garlic powder (1½ tsp for 4 servings), salt, and pepper. (You'll use the rest of the garlic powder in the next step.) • Roast on top rack until browned and crisp, 20-25 minutes.
• • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine vinegar, 1 TBSP onion (2 TBSP for 4 servings), 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4), and a pinch of salt. • In a separate small bowl, combine ketchup, sour cream, mustard, remaining garlic powder, and 1 tsp sugar (2 tsp for 4).
• • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add remaining onion; cook, stirring occasionally, until browned and softened, 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. • Transfer to a plate.
• • While onion cooks, form beef* into two patties (four patties for 4 servings), each slightly wider than a burger bun. Season generously with salt and pepper. • Once onion is done, heat a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side. • In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top each patty with cheddar; cover pan to melt cheese.
• • While cheese melts, toast buns until golden brown. • Stir pickled onion (draining first) into bowl with special sauce. • Fill toasted buns with patties, griddled onion, tomato, and special sauce. Divide burgers between plates; serve with potato wedges and any remaining sauce on the side for dipping.

JUICY GRILLED CHEESEBURGERS

Steps:

• Heat a grill to medium-high direct heat and lightly oil the grates using a paper towel soaked in canola oil or nonstick grilling cooking spray.
• Spread a 16-inch-long piece of nonstick aluminum foil on a cutting board (or mist a piece of regular aluminum foil with nonstick cooking spray). Top with the onions, 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper and 1 tablespoon water. Bring two sides of the foil together, fold over twice to create a seal and then seal the remaining two ends. Put on the grill and cook for 12 minutes, flipping once. The onions should be tender with only a bit of charring. Carefully open the top of the foil to let all the steam out and continue to cook the onions, tossing, until browned and lightly charred, 3 minutes longer. Remove from the heat.
• While the onions cook, mix the ketchup and mustard together in a small bowl. Season with pepper and set aside.
• Lightly toast the English muffins on the grill and place one top and bottom on each of 4 plates. Spread some of the ketchup sauce on the bottom half of each muffin and top with a slice of tomato.
• Divide the beef into 4 patties about 4 inches in diameter and just under 1/2-inch thick. Sprinkle with a total of 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Place the burgers on the grill. Cook until the edges of the burgers are browning, 3 to 5 minutes, and then flip. Brush the burgers with the remaining ketchup sauce and evenly top with the shredded cheese. Cover the burgers with the grill lid or a large heatproof bowl and continue to cook until the cheese has melted and the burgers are still a bit pink on the inside, about 3 minutes more.
• Put one burger on top of the assembled muffin bottom and top with some of the grilled onions and the top of the muffin. Serve with pickles if desired.
