Ingredients:

• 1 lb 80/20 ground beef
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Slap Ya Mama seasoning
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 slices Muenster or Swiss cheese
• 4 sweet Hawaiian roll buns
• 4 tablespoons truffle mayo
• 8 slices bacon, cooked
• 2 large onions, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar

Instructions:

Caramelize the Onions:

1. Heat the Butter:

   • In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-low heat.

2. Cook the Onions:

   • Add the thinly sliced onions and stir to coat them in the butter.
   • Cook the onions slowly, stirring occasionally, until they become soft and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.
   • During the last 5 minutes, add the brown sugar and stir to combine.
   • Remove from heat and set aside.

Prepare the Burgers:

3. Mix the Beef:

   • In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, Slap Ya Mama seasoning, and black pepper.
   • Mix gently until the ingredients are just combined.

4. Form the Patties:

   • Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form each portion into a ball.
   • Place a ball of beef between two pieces of parchment paper and press down with a heavy skillet or burger press to flatten into a thin patty.

5. Cook the Patties:

   • Heat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat.
   • Once hot, add the patties to the skillet.
   • Cook for about 2-3 minutes on the first side until well-browned and crispy.
   • Flip the patties and immediately place a slice of cheese on each patty.
   • Cook for another 1-2 minutes until the cheese is melted and the patties are cooked through.

Assemble the Burgers:

6. Prepare the Buns:

   • Slice the sweet Hawaiian roll buns and toast them lightly on the griddle or in a toaster.

7. Spread the Truffle Mayo:

   • Spread 1 tablespoon of truffle mayo on the top half of each bun.

8. Add the Patties:

   • Place the cooked patties with melted cheese on the bottom half of each bun.

9. Add Bacon and Onions:

   • Top each patty with 2 slices of cooked bacon and a generous portion of caramelized onions.

10. Finish the Burger:

    • Place the top half of the bun with the truffle mayo on the burger.
