1 1/2 tbsp Weber® Gourmet Burger® Seasoning

Directions

Melt butter in large skillet. Add onion and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, for 12 to 15 minutes until onions are lightly brown.
Add ½ teaspoon seasoning and brown sugar and continue to cook 5 minutes until onions are well browned. Set aside.
Gently shape ground beef into four 5-inch patties. Sprinkle 1 ½ tablespoons seasoning over both sides of burgers.
Grill burgers over direct medium heat (350° to 450°F) with the lid closed as much as possible, until the internal temperature reaches 160°F for medium, 12 to 15 minutes, turning once.
During the last minute of cooking, top with cheese.
To serve, place burgers on hamburger bun. Top with bacon, caramelized onions and jalapeños if desired.
Serve with plenty of barbeque sauce!
