salt and pepper, to taste

yellow onions, thinly sliced

brioche bun

special sauce (recipe below)

Heat a griddle or cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the burger patties, season with salt and pepper, and top with a small mound of thinly shaved onions. Press down on the burgers to spread the patties to about ¼-inch thick. Flip the burgers over as soon as they are golden brown on the bottom. Top each patty with 1-2 slices of cheese and cook until the patty is golden brown and the cheese is slightly melted.

To serve, toast the buns (you can use a pat of butter if you want) until warm. Spread a little special sauce down on the cut sides of the bun. Top with 2 patties and close the bun.

For the Special Sauce:

1 cup mayonnaise

2 tablespoons ketchup

1 tablespoon Dijon

2 dashes hot sauce

¼ cup small diced or minced bread and butter pickles

Combine all ingredients.
