Start by making a burger sauce, adjusting ingredients to taste with barbecue sauce and mustard.

Use 1 package of Beyond Meat, splitting it into four portions (about 1/4 pound each).

Form each portion into a ball.

Heat butter in a skillet and sauté onions until desired doneness.

Place the meat balls in the skillet and smash them down with a flat-bottomed object to make them as flat as possible.

Season the smashed patties with seasoned salt and black pepper.

Cook until crispy bits form on the bottom, then flip the patties.

Add a slice of vegan cheese on top of each patty and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.

Assemble the burgers with lettuce, tomato, pickles, and the burger sauce.
