<\/a>Ingredients:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 lb ground beef<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8 slices of rye bread<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8 slices of Swiss cheese<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 large onion, thinly sliced<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4 tbsp butter, plus more for spreading<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Salt and pepper to taste<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the Secret Sauce:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1\/2 cup mayonnaise<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2 tbsp ketchup<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tbsp relish<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1 tsp Worcestershire sauce<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Directions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Begin by mixing the secret sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Adjust seasoning to taste, then set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tbsp of butter. Add the thinly sliced onions, season with salt and pepper, and cook until caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Transfer to a plate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Form the ground beef into 4 patties, slightly larger than your bread slices. Season both sides with salt and pepper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the same skillet, cook the patties to your desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium. Remove and set aside.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Butter one side of each bread slice. To assemble, spread the secret sauce on the non-buttered side of 4 slices, add a slice of cheese, a patty, caramelized onions, another slice of cheese, and top with another bread slice, buttered side up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a clean skillet over medium heat, grill the sandwiches until golden brown and the cheese is melted, about 3-4 minutes per side.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
