Is this necessary for cooking burgers?

Is this bait?

No

>>7337886
Fuck yes

No, I'm generally curious. I mean, how will it cook?

Not well. It would be steamed.

It would be fine if the onions were around the meat, but you don't want them blocking the meat's contact with the skillet.

this. for a great burger, or meat patty for that matter, you want a good sear with the pan to produce flavor. then remove the meat and brown the onions and peppers.

Like shit.

When cooking a burger, part of the appeal is the sear of direct heat on the patty. Cooking it on a bed of onions removes the sear and also softens the meat with an onion flavor.

May as well just eat god-damned onion/ground beef stir-fry.

It would be better to put the onions and shit on top if you were trying to cook it this way.

This seems like a waste of onions too me.

Steamed burgers. Terrible idea

The only way this come out well is if you finish it with a goddamn blowtorch.

they go on top of the burgers, like sliders

it's unconventional and definitely tastes different from other burgers but it's basically like a better version of white castle
