• Butter one side of each piece of the Rye bread with 1 Tablespoon of the butter.

• Melt the remaining butter on one side of the flat top. Then top the melted butter with the sliced onions. Sauté the onions in the butter until they are caramelized (3-5 minutes).

• While the onions are cooking, place the ground beef on the grill. Put a piece of parchment paper on top of the beef and use a spatula or a burger press to smash the meat into 2 thin patties.

• Let the patties cook until they are golden browned and crispy (2-3 minutes). Then flip the patties over (do not smash) and cook the other side for 2-3 minutes until it is also browned and crispy.

• Place a piece of the Swiss cheese on each burger patty on skillet and melt.
