Patty Melt

How To Make A Patty Melt

1. Make caramelized onions. You’ll need a good skillet and about an hour of time, but the best patty melt relies on a few really good ingredients, and you can’t skip the onions. You make them a day or two ahead of time and store them in the fridge, if need be.

2. Season the beef, then form it into ¼ pound patties.

3. Cook the patties! In large pan, until it’s cooked to your preferred level of doneness.

4. Mix together the softened butter and mayo in a small bowl, and slather your bread with a that slightly wicked mixture.

5. Build the patty melts. The order is as follows: slathered bread slice, Swiss cheese slice, beef patty, caramelized onions, second cheese slice, slathered, butter-side-up bread slice.

6. Griddle your patty melts! Cook them over medium low heat—if your pan is too hot, the bread will burn before the cheese melts.

7. Eat your patty melts!
