Preparation

Step 1

Make the Det Mix: Combine all the ingredients in a bowl.

Make the Hamburgers: Heat the butter and oil in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add the hamburgers and cook halfway through and turn over. Cover each with about 1/4 cup of the Det Mix and top with the onion slices.

Pour in the 1/4 cup beer and cover with a lid. Steam a couple of minutes until the onion is translucent. Re-steam with beer a couple of times. Top each hamburger with a slice of cheese and cover until melted. Transfer the hamburger to the buns and serve.

This recipe yields 4 burgers.
