Oklahoma Onion Burgers are a classic favorite in the area, and their juicy beef patties are flavored with onions. People who want to taste the delicious flavors of Oklahoma should try these burgers!

Ingredients: 1 lb ground beef. 1 large onion, finely chopped. Salt and pepper to taste. 4 slices American cheese. 4 hamburger buns. Mustard and ketchup for topping. Sliced pickles and lettuce for garnish.

Instructions: Set your grill or griddle on the stove to medium-high heat to get it ready. Separate the ground beef into 4 equal parts and form them into thin patties that are about 1/4-inch thick. On both sides of each patty, sprinkle salt and pepper. Put some chopped onions on one side of each patty and press them into the meat. Carefully fold the patty in half, making sure the onions stay inside. This makes stuffed patties. Put the stuffed patties on the grill or griddle and cook for three to four minutes on each side, or until they're done the way you like them. Cover and add a slice of American cheese to top of each patty in the last minute of cooking. This will melt the cheese. Put the hamburger buns on a grill or griddle and toast them until they get a little brown. Spread mustard and ketchup on the bottoms of the toasted buns before putting the burgers together. Cover the buns with the cheesy onion patties. Add sliced pickles and lettuce on top of the patties. Add the tops of the buns last, and serve your tasty Oklahoma Onion Burgers hot.
