Thinly sliced white or red onion
¼ cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 ½ tablespoon mustard
¾ tablespoon relish
Directions
- Heat cast-iron skillet on medium heat. Butter buns and toast on skillet. Set aside.
- Divide ground chuck into four 4 oz patties or eight 2 oz patties. Careful not to overwork the meat. Turn skillet to medium-high. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil on skillet. Season tops of divided ground chuck with salt just before placing on skillet.
