“Sometimes we dont even bother with a bun for these moist, flavorful burgers. Smoked cheese, grilled onions and a special sauce make them out of the ordinary! –Christie Gardiner, Eagle Mountain, Utah”

INGREDIENTS

* 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
* 2 teaspoons onion salt
* 2 teaspoons brown sugar
* 1 egg, beaten
* 1 pound ground beef
* 1 1/4 cups barbecue sauce
* SAUCE:
* 1/2 cup mayonnaise
* 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
* 1 teaspoon brown sugar
* ONION TOPPING:
* 2 tablespoons butter
* 1/4 cup honey
* 2 large sweet onions, thinly sliced

DIRECTIONS

1. In a bowl, combine the bread crumbs, onion salt and brown sugar. Add egg. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into four patties. Place in a shallow dish; pour barbecue sauce over patties. Cover and refrigerate for 2-4 hours.
2. In a small bowl, combine the sauce ingredients; cover and refrigerate until serving. For topping, melt butter in a large skillet. Stir in honey until blended. Add onions; saute for 15-20 minutes or until tender and lightly browned. Keep warm.
3. Drain and discard barbecue sauce. Grill patties, uncovered, over medium-hot heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Top each with a cheese slice; grill 1 minute longer or until cheese is melted. Serve on buns with sauce and onion topping.
