Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 4 slices of Gruyère or Swiss cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
- 2 tablespoons butter (plus additional for buns)
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 clove garlic, minced (optional, for garlic butter buns)
Instructions
- In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 2 tablespoons of butter. Add the sliced onions and sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 20-25 minutes until the onions are deeply caramelized and sweet.
- Season the ground beef with salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.

- Mix minced garlic with additional butter and spread the mixture on the buns. Toast the buns until golden brown.

- Sprinkle fresh thyme over the melted cheese. Place the bun tops on the burgers and serve immediately.
