White Cheddar Crunch Burgers
with Griddled Onions, Roasted Potato Wedges & Smoky Mustard
- Wheat
- Milk
Is there anything more satisfying than a cheeseburger? (Actually, we checked, and the answer is no.) There is a difference, however, between a good cheeseburger and a truly great one. Turns out, this one falls squarely in the GREAT category: Juicy beef patties are topped with melty white cheddar and two types of tantalizing onions: sweet griddled and crunchy fried, plus ripe tomato slices all on a smoky mustard-slathered pillowy brioche bun. And what burger would be complete without taters? (Answer: no burger, ever.) So on the side: crispy salt and pepper roasted wedges hot out of the oven—oh yeah!

Cooking Steps
• Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. • Slice potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel and cut onion into ¼-inch-thick rounds, keeping layers intact. Halve buns.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until tender and browned at the edges, 2-4 minutes per side. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan. TIP: The onion slices won’t brown well if they’re not in a single layer. Cook in batches if necessary!
• Form beef* into two patties (four patties for 4 servings), each slightly wider than a burger bun. (TIP: Don’t worry if your patties aren’t perfectly round—those irregular edges will turn deliciously crispy!) Season generously with salt and pepper. • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for onion over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side. (Careful! Oil may splatter.) • In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top patties with cheddar and cover pan to melt.
• While patties cook, toast buns until golden brown. Spread as much mustard on cut sides of buns as you like.
• Fill buns with griddled onion, patties, and crispy fried onions. • Divide burgers between plates and serve with potato wedges on the side.
Ground Beef is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.

Reviews from our home cooks
I absolutely loved the White Cheddar Burgers with Crispy Onions and Smoked Mustard! Every bite was packed with flavor - the smoky mustard added the perfect kick, while the melted white cheddar gave it that creamy, savory finish. The crispy onions took the burger to another level, adding that satisfying crunch I didn't even know I needed! The roasted potatoes were golden, tender, and seasoned just right - simple but full of flavor. The whole meal felt like a gourmet burger night made easy at home. This one's definitely going on my repeat list - flavorful, filling, and fun to make.
These burgers were top notch. Potato wedges are always a great pairing with burgers and these were easy to prepare. The onions might have worked better separating out the rings and sauteing them a little longer to get them more caramelized as the slices didn't soften quite enough to have sweet perfection. The mustard sauce was a nice touch. Made for a great meal!
YUM, YUM, YUMMMM! I absolutely love onions, so the combinations of caramelized onions and onion straws was SO GOOD! I also love the smoky mustard sauce. The sweet, tangy smokiness of it paired so well with the salty crispy onions and the richness of the burger with the creamy white cheddar! Just LOVED it!
This was super delicious and we loved it! Burger was juicy and flavorful, we cooked the onions longer so they were more caramelized and the contrast with the crispy onions was tasty. The smoky mustard was great on the burger and to dip the wedges.
I love all the burgers, and these are no exception. The combination of grilled onions and fried ones with the smoky mustard sauce really creates a complex and delicious flavor! I did end up with an excess of both fried and grilled onions, although that's hardly a problem.
It was a perfect blend of the savoryness of the burger mixed with the saltiness of the cheese and topped with a nice crunch from the French fried onions, makes it a perfect combo all together.
Fairly easy prep, tasty mustard and crunchy onions! Easy weekday meal. I should've grilled outside though because burgers on the stove are messy. Overall I'd recommend, just be prepared to do some stovetop cleaning afterwards.
This meal was really delicious, but it would be nice to have had a choice of condiments. Neither of us are crazy about mustard, so my daughter likes ketchup with her burgers while I prefer barbecue sauce. Luckily, I already had both in the house so we were able to enjoy our burgers. I also spiced up the potato wedges with some garlic powder and a touch of paprika, and they came out perfect!
More crunchy onions, include seasoning packets instead of just salt / pepper (I added my own to the ground beef and the potato wedges - onion, garlic, chili powder...), and more cheese - I couldn't really taste the cheese on the burgers. I also think offering another topping would have been nice - I put my own BBQ sauce on top, which was a good combo with the mustard.
Recipe is perfect! This was probably the best hamburger I've ever made at home. The choice of bun, the Smokey mustard, the crispy onions.... Delicious!!!!
