Delish Onion Burgers

So many of my friends have asked me for recipes for this and that through the years, so I have decided I will post some of my favorites to share with all y'all.

Onion Burgers are quite literally what a Krystal burger would be if it were a Sloppy Joe. No kidding. This burger is full of flavor. You must follow it to the letter, and you will end up with a family favorite! Enjoy!

Onion Burgers

2 lbs. ground chuck
Salt & Pepper to taste
1 pkg. French Onion Soup mix
1 cup water
2 tblsp. flour
Sliced Sweet Onion
Butter & Olive Oil
Mayonnaise
Yellow Mustard
Hamburger Buns

Crumble and brown ground chuck in skillet. Salt and pepper meat to taste. When meat gets to slightly pink, add the dry onion soup mix. Stir. Sprinkle the 2 tblsp. flour over meat mixture and stir. Add the water, give it one last stir and turn to low and cover. Simmer for 20 minutes or until gravy is thickened.
Meanwhile, wrap buns in tin foil and warm in oven on 250° for 10-15 minutes. Heat up a little olive oil and butter in a skillet until bubbly. Place thick onion slices in the heated skillet, add salt and pepper to taste. Cook on both sides until transparent.
To assemble sandwich, slice heated bun and spread mayonnaise on one half and yellow mustard on the other half. Add a scoop of ground beef mixture and top with sautéed onions.
Serve Onion Burgers with homemade french fries made from sliced red potatoes, fried in oil and topped with kosher salt. YUM.
