Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 medium onion finely chopped
- 1 can about 10.5 oz French onion soup
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 4 burger buns toasted
- Sliced provolone gruyère, or Swiss cheese
Instructions
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Brown the ground beef for 5–7 minutes until fully cooked. Drain excess fat.
- Add chopped onion and sauté for 3–4 minutes until softened and translucent.
- Stir in French onion soup and Worcestershire sauce. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Reduce heat and simmer the mixture for 10 minutes to blend flavors and reduce slightly.
- Spoon the meat mixture onto toasted burger buns.
- Top with sliced cheese, if desired. Serve warm.
Notes
- Use ground turkey or chicken as a lighter alternative to beef.
- For extra richness, top with cheese and broil for 1 minute until melted.
- Add flavor boosts like garlic powder, smoked paprika, or caramelized mushrooms.
- Store meat mixture separately from buns to prevent sogginess.
