  • Pile thinly sliced onion on top of the balls.
  • Using a Grill Press very firmly squash the onions and meat into a flat Pattie. Season a second time.
  • Let them grill 1-2 mins – then the flip patties so the onions are facing the heat of the griddle. Season and add a couple of cheese slices onto each patty as well and some sliced  jalapeños,.
