2 American cheese slices
# Instructions:
01 -
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, relish, ketchup, sugar, and vinegar until combined into a pink-colored mixture. Set aside.
02 -
Weigh out 8 portions of 3 to 4 ounces of ground beef. Gently flatten each portion into a circular patty, ensuring not to overmix or mold it. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Set aside.
03 -
Heat vegetable oil in a large pan or flat grill over medium to medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, add the onion slices and sprinkle with sugar and salt. Cook until the edges turn golden, then flip gently to caramelize the other side. Before removing from heat, place cheese on half of the onion slices and let it melt.
04 -
Heat vegetable oil and/or butter in a skillet or pan over medium-high heat. Add the patties and optionally spread a teaspoon of mustard on the raw side of each patty. Cook for 2-3 minutes until a brown crust forms, then flip. Add a slice of American cheese on half of the patties and cook for 1 more minute. Stack a patty without cheese on top of a patty with cheese to create a double burger. Place the stacked patties onto one of the cheese-topped onion buns, then add another onion bun on top to serve.

For best results, ensure the onions are thoroughly caramelized for maximum flavor.
