7

Heat a couple tablespoons of cooking oil and 2 tablespoons of butter in a cast iron enamel pot over medium-high heat.

Remove the patties and set them aside on a plate.

10

Slice 2 medium yellow onions thinly and add them to the pot with the remaining grease.

Cook the onions until they are soft and caramelized, scraping the bottom of the pot to get the flavor.
