Heat your Blackstone to medium heat and add a drizzle of olive oil. Add one of the julienned yellow onions with a pinch of salt. Cook for 20-30 minutes, tossing often until evenly golden and caramelized. Slide to the cooler side of the griddle.
Heat your Blackstone Griddle to medium-high heat, add a drizzle of olive oil, and lay out the sliced potatoes evenly so they all touch the griddle surface. Cook for 3-4 minutes per side, then slide to the cooler side of the griddle. Avoid stacking the potatoes to ensure they crisp up evenly while the burgers cook.
Place the meatballs on the griddle without smashing. Let them cook for 30 seconds, then flip them over so the slightly cooked part is facing up. Use your spatula or burger smasher to flatten them very thin. Add some of the julienned yellow onion to 3 of the patties before flipping. Cook for 90 seconds, then flip again.
Add some of the caramelized onions to three of the patties that don’t have onions already, then add a slice of American cheese to each. Place the top buns down on top of each burger and the bottom buns on top of the tops so the buns can steam and heat up.
Serve the burger without onions with lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Serve the other two styles with a pickle or two and potato chips.
