Ingredients
  

Ingredients
  • 4 Richwood Meat burger patties
  • Salt to taste
  • Black pepper to taste
  • 4 slices provolone cheese
  • 4 brioche buns
  • For the Garlic Aioli
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 garlic clove finely minced or grated
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • Pinch of salt
  • For the Roasted Parmesan Onions
  • 1 medium yellow onion thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Method
 

Directions
  1. In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, and salt until smooth. Let sit for 5 to 10 minutes so the garlic flavor can develop.
  2. Preheat the oven to 425°F.
  3. Spread the sliced onion on a small baking sheet, drizzle with olive oil, and season with the black pepper.
  4. Roast for 15 minutes, then sprinkle with the Parmesan cheese and roast for 5 minutes more until the onions are tender and lightly crisp at the edges.
  5. Preheat a grill or skillet/griddle over medium-high heat.
  6. Season the burger patties lightly with salt and black pepper.
  7. Cook the patties until browned and cooked to your preferred doneness, turning once or as needed. Cook time may vary depending on patty thickness, cooking method, and whether cooking from frozen.
  8. During the last 1 to 2 minutes of cooking, top each patty with a slice of provolone cheese.
  9. Avoid pressing down on the patties while they cook, as this can squeeze out flavorful juices.
  10. Lightly toast the brioche buns until warm and lightly crisp. Toasting helps the buns hold up better and adds texture.
  11. Let the patties rest for 3 to 5 minutes.
  12. Spread the garlic aioli on the toasted buns.
  13. Assemble the burgers with the patty on the bottom bun, then top with the roasted Parmesan onions. Add the top bun and serve right away.
