Directions

Prep 🥒

1. Preheat your oven to 375F.

2. Wash the potatoes and slice into steak fries. Toss with half of the olive oil and a large pinch of Sweet & Smoky BBQ Rub.

3. Spray the foil-lined sheet trays with pan spray and spread the potato slices evenly onto the trays. Place in the oven and rotate every 15 minutes until GBD (Golden Brown & Delicious), about 45 minutes in total.

4. Grate the cheese.

5. Peel and julienne the onion.

6. Remove the beef from its packaging and form into two hamburger patties. Set aside on a paper towel-lined plate.

How to Cook 🍳

1. In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, melt 2 tablespoons of the butter.

2. Add the onions and cook over medium-high heat, stirring, until caramelized.

3. Add the honey and vinegar to the pan, season with S & P Seasoning and turn the heat to medium. Allow to cook over medium heat until jammy.

4. In the large saute pan over medium-low heat, melt 2 tablespoons butter. When the butter begins to bubble, gently toast the brioche buns until golden brown and delicious. Remove the buns from the pan and set them aside.

5. Clean the pan and return it to the stove over high heat.

6. Add the olive oil to the pan.  When the oil begins to smoke, season the burger patties with Sweet & Smoky BBQ Rub and add them to the pan. Continue to cook over medium-high heat, flipping from time to time, until medium rare, about 5 minutes.

7. Top the patties with the grated cheese, turn the heat to medium, and cover.

8. Allow the burgers to cook, covered, until the cheese has melted, about 30 seconds.

9. Remove the lid and transfer the patties to a cutting board.

10. Remove the steak fries from the oven.

11. To build the burger, add the caramelized onions, cover with BBQ sauce and devour, alongside your crispy oven fries!
