24 oz dry-aged burger meat
4 slices of sharp white cheddar cheese
4 pretzel buns
2 tablespoons melted butter
2 white onions, thinly sliced
salt and pepper
olive oil
For Emmy sauce:
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
¼ cup gochujang
2 cloves of minced garlic
1 teaspoon sesame seeds
½ cup mayonnaise (I used kewpie japanese mayo)
Directions
1.In a heated saucepan, caramelize onions. Simmer on low for 40 minutes.
2. Separately, combine sugar and rice wine vinegar in a heated sauce pan on low, until sugar is dissolved.
3. Then, add in your gochujang, garlic and sesame. Combine 1/4 cup of this sauce with 1/2 cup mayo to create your Emmy Sauce!
4. Generously season burgers with salt and pepper and cook on medium, about 4 minutes each side. Cook 2-3 minutes longer if you like your burger more well done.
5. Add a slice of cheese to each burger and a splash of water to you sauce pan. Cover and let cook for another minute, allowing the cheese to melt.
6.Once burgers are done, butter your buns and toast.
7.Build your burger! Season both sides of your bun with Emmy sauce, add your burger and top with caramelized onions.
Enjoy!
