let's make the classic diner sandwich a
0:04
patty melt We have the hamburger patties
0:07
cheese we've got golden toast and we got
0:11
a secret sauce to pull it all together
0:14
But we can't forget our onions Let's
0:17
caramelize these up We've got two yellow
0:21
onions
0:22
We're going to take off the ends Now
0:24
it's just Thomas and I today but we do
0:28
like sauteed onions and these will
0:31
shrink down in size and fit perfectly on
0:34
our sandwich
0:36
So I'm just taking off the ends
0:44
Now we're going to cut these into
0:47
circles
0:50
They'll hold better in the sandwich We
0:52
don't want to dice them up because
0:52
they'll just all fall out and we don't
0:55
want that
1:05
Nice rings here
1:10
Now if you want to cut your onion in
1:12
half and then slice them you can do that
1:18
And we'll finish this one
1:26
All right we're just going to pop these
1:28
out
1:31
and let's get our pan ready There we go
1:35
We're going to place a medium skillet on
1:37
our burner We're going to place it on a
1:39
medium high heat
1:42
We're going to add one tablespoon of
1:44
some cooking oil
1:47
We'll add a tablespoon of butter
1:51
Now keep your oil on hand because we may
1:53
need it to add a little extra along the
1:56
way Now once the oil and the butter come
1:59
to a sizzle we're going to add in the
2:01
onions
2:09
Now we are going to season our onions
2:13
with some salt and pepper
2:20
about a quarter of a teaspoon We want a
2:22
flavor along the way
2:28
That's good
2:30
Now I'm going to coat all the onions
2:32
with the butter and the oil And we want
2:34
to soften these down and give them nice
2:37
color to them
2:40
All right we're going to place a lid on
2:41
it That'll help steam them and soften
2:43
them down even faster But we want to get
2:45
them a nice deep dark caramelized color
2:48
to these onions It'll add such a
2:50
delicious flavor While that's happening
2:54
let's get our hamburger patties ready
2:57
In a medium bowl I have one pound of
2:59
ground beef And we're going to season
3:01
that up with some Kinder Buttery
3:04
Steakhouse Blend We like this on steak
3:08
on hamburger
3:12
All right Now it doesn't have garlic in
3:15
it so we're going to add some garlic
3:16
powder You want to flavor up your
3:19
hamburger patties for sure
3:22
Some black pepper
3:27
And we're going to go in with a little
3:29
salt
3:34
I'm going to mix this all up Now you can
3:36
season with whatever seasoning blend you
3:39
like for hamburgers
3:41
Just make sure it's nice and flavored
3:44
I'm going to press it down
3:47
I'm going to divide this into four so we
3:49
can make four patties Now the bread I'm
3:52
using is kind of an oval shape So we're
3:55
going to form an ovalshaped patty So I'm
3:58
going to divide it into fours
4:02
And then we're going to take one just
4:05
kind of form a ball with it And then
4:07
we're going to flatten it out We're
4:09
going to make it very thin
4:12
and we're going to make it an oval shape
4:16
Right Just going to set these on a plate
4:18
Now if you're using square bread then
4:22
you would make just your regular
4:23
standard round patties
4:30
There we go
4:34
Let's check our onions All right We
4:36
decided to put two patties together and
4:38
thin them out in an oval shape That way
4:41
once they cook they'll start shrinking
4:43
and we want them to fit on the bread
4:47
We're almost there Don't rush the
4:50
process We'll get there
4:56
Woo look at these We're going to call
4:58
these done Going to let these sit in the
5:01
pan and then we're going to start a new
5:02
pan for the burgers All right let's get
5:06
this started On a medium high heat
5:09
we want to get it nice and hot
5:12
I'm going to add a tablespoon of butter
5:14
We're going to flavor it up Once your
5:16
butter is nice and hot and starts to
5:17
sizzle we're going to add the burgers in
5:26
All right we're going to cook about 5 to
5:28
7 minutes on one side until they're nice
5:30
and golden brown Then we'll flip them
5:33
over So I'm just using a piece of
5:35
parchment paper and I'm going to place
5:36
it on the burger And I'm just flattening
5:37
them down a little bit Get them all nice
5:39
and even so they cook nice and even This
5:43
is kind of in the middle of the five to
5:45
six minutes
5:49
All right we're going to flip them over
5:52
Use two that way you don't splatter
5:54
yourself
6:00
Yeah Another four to five minutes
6:03
they're done What I did was I flipped it
6:06
over I just took a butter knife to it
6:07
and just went right in the center there
6:09
And they're done
6:11
We're going to remove them from the pan
6:15
Now I have an oil pan right here that
6:17
we're going to use to pour out the
6:19
grease Then we'll just clean up the pan
6:20
a little bit and we're going to start
6:21
toasting the bread
6:30
I'm placing my long skillet on medium
6:34
heat Going to heat that up Now we've got
6:36
our bread laid out I'm using this right
6:40
here It's a dark rye Generally a rye
6:43
bread is used for patty melts You want
6:46
to have everything ready once you start
6:48
this okay because you you don't want to
6:50
burn your bread So we're going to take
6:51
about a tablespoon of butter and start
6:54
buttering our bread on one side And
6:57
we're just doing two of them There we go
7:00
Now we're going to put the butter side
7:01
down into our skillet
7:05
cuz we're making two sandwiches and we
7:07
want to start toasting them on the
7:09
butter side Right there Two pieces of
7:12
Swiss cheese
7:15
right on top
7:18
We're going to put our hamburger patties
7:21
on top
7:23
Yeah Look at that Mhm
7:28
We're going to get our grilled onions
7:31
right in the center
7:33
Lots of them Right We made them Put them
7:36
on there
7:42
Oh this is going to be so good
7:44
We got French fries in our air fryer
7:46
that we're going to turn on because it
7:48
only takes about 8 to 10 minutes
7:53
See that was two medium onions Cheese
7:57
right on top
8:00
All right let's bring our bread over for
8:02
the top I'm going to show you what we're
8:03
going to do with that Here's our secret
8:05
sauce It's not really a secret but there
8:08
it is It is Thousand Island dressing I'm
8:12
going to blop some on
8:16
Blop some on And we'll take a knife and
8:18
we're going to spread it on And then
8:21
we're going to lay it with the sauce
8:22
side down on top of the cheese
8:25
And we're going to toast these
8:28
till the cheese is nice and melted And
8:31
we got a nice toast to the sandwiches
8:34
Okay we're going to butter the top
8:36
because when we flip these we got to
8:38
toast the other side
8:41
That butter will help toast them
8:44
Let's turn these over
8:48
There we go Yay
8:52
On the dark rye it's almost hard to tell
8:54
huh but I can tell that it's nice and
8:56
crispy on the top Yay
9:00
Get up underneath there and then fling
9:01
it fast Now you don't have to use rye
9:05
bread You can use any other type of
9:07
bread that you want okay but this was
9:09
just a classic for this sandwich All
9:12

9:15

9:18
