1st Step
To begin, slice the yellow onion as thinly as possible. Achieving slices that are as thin as paper and that caramelize nicely when cooked will provide the most authentic Oklahoma experience.
2nd Step
Form the ground beef into four patties of similar size using gentle pressure. Salt and black pepper should be applied on both sides of the meat before it is cooked to provide a uniform coating.
3rd Step
Prepare a griddle or a skillet by heating it over a medium flame. First, drizzle a little oil over the surface of the stove, and then proceed to add the sliced onions. They should be cooked, with stirring taking place intermittently, until they get a deep golden color. This should take around ten to fifteen minutes to complete. After they have been caramelized, put them to the side.
4th Step
You’ll want to use a spatula to crush each patty down onto the hot cooking surface to get the unique texture of an Oklahoma Fried Onion Burger. Make a thin patty by pressing down hard and allowing the edges to get crisp as you work.
5th Step
Immediately sprinkle a good amount of the caramelized onions over the top of each of the crushed patties. As the meat continues to cook, give them a chance to combine with the flesh.
