Oklahoma Onion Burger (Keto)
A keto Oklahoma onion burger of seasoned ground beef smashed thin over a mound of razor-thin onion, seared until the edges lace and crisp. Topped with melted American cheese, a swipe of mustard-mayo, and pickle, all wrapped in crisp iceberg lettuce leaves instead of a bun.

Prep
Slice the onion paper-thin, form the beef into a loose ball, and whisk the mustard and mayonnaise together until smooth.

Sear
Melt the beef tallow in a cast-iron skillet over high heat for 2 minutes until it shimmers and just starts to smoke.

Char
Pile the onion in, press the beef ball on top, smash flat, season with salt and pepper, and cook over high heat 4 minutes until browned.
4
Melt
Flip so the onion faces up, lay the American cheese over the patty, and cook over high heat 2 minutes until the cheese slumps.
