Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20)
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder (optional)
- 4 slices cheddar or American cheese
- 2 eggs
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 tbsp butter or oil (for sautéing)
- 2 burger or brioche buns
- Mustard, ketchup, or burger sauce (optional)
- Chopped chives or parsley (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
- Form ground beef into 4 thin patties. Season both sides with salt, pepper, and garlic powder if using.
- Heat butter or oil in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté onions until caramelized, about 10–12 minutes. Set aside.
- Cook patties in a hot skillet or on a grill for 2–3 minutes per side. Place a cheese slice on two patties while still hot, then stack with the other patties to create two double stacks.
- In a separate pan, fry eggs sunny-side-up or to desired doneness.
- Lightly toast the burger buns.
- Assemble: Place the bottom bun, add the stacked patties with melted cheese, top with caramelized onions, fried egg, optional sauce, and finish with the top bun.
- Garnish with fresh herbs if desired and serve hot.
Notes
- Use a skewer to hold the stack together for easier handling.
- For added richness, include bacon or avocado slices.
- Customize with your favorite cheese or sauce.
- Cook eggs on low heat for a perfectly runny yolk.
- Serve bun-less for a low-carb option.
