For what it's worth, this was the original principle behind the White Castle burger, as well as several other classic burger joints here in Jersey all dating back to that same time period as White Castle - they put down an enormous pile of onions on the grill and smash the meat patties onto that... and put the buns on top of that to catch the remaining steam. They're a very different mouthfeel from other burgers, but the flavor is amazing.

I’m not counting the salt or buns, because every burger needs those, but damn if it doesn’t ruin the simplicity by adding all those condiments, lol. But honestly, even adding salt and pepper to the patties makes it seem they’re stretching the “just three ingredients” rule more than a little. I mean, I know that they want to make it sound like an amazingly simple burger, but it seems a bit clickbait-y to not at least mention the salt, which is 100% necessary for any type of meat, and also doing a hell of a lot more for the flavor than *water.* Overall, he could have left the bun out of the ingredient list since that’s a given, left out the pepper, and called it a four-ingredient burger…because it would’ve tasted great with just beef, salt, onions and water, and then put on top of a bun.

I remove them (so they don't burn) and turn the heat up and then sear the burgers in the flavor from the onions to get that crust. I remove burgers from pan temporally to drain excess fat from pan. Mustard on bottom of burger, return to pan (mustard side down. Add onions (and mushrooms) on top. Add shredded cheese of choice on top (usually a blend of mozzarella and parmigiano reggiano). Add water to pan. Cover. Steam until cheese is melted and burger cooked through. Big patties like this, no filler, season as you like. I have a homemade Caesar dressing of my own creation I usually put on the bun, plus whatever other condiments or toppings I feel like at the time.

When it comes to burgers I love making my own burger blend approx 55% boneless shortrib 30% dry age pellicle trimmings and 15% bone marrow. Super tasty and rich, I prefer doing smash burgers with this. If you try I suggest messing around with the ratios

Onion does magical things to meat, especially when mixed in. Adds so much juice and flavor!

I have made burgers using this technique for years! I put cheese on them at the end and put a lid on it for a minute or so to melt over meat and onions. Very juicy and lots of flavor

Sorta reminds me of a take on an Oklahoma Onion Burger. Except you got none of the sear. Like boiled version of it. Sounds pretty good. I bet you could safely go a little leaner beef if you wanted. Or, and I know this isn't a Turkey channel, but this seems perfect for ground turkey that is usually really lean.

Without the water, and making them slider sized, this is essentially a Power's Hamburger from my home town of Fort Wayne. Probably 1oz of hamburger, smashed, then grilled onions placed on them, turned, smashed, and served with ketchup and mustard. They don't even add salt unless you ask. It's one of the best things you could ever eat. Powers has been in operation for over 80 years and it's hard to guess how many millions of burgers they've sold off what can't be more than about 30" flat top.

For anyone who has lived in the midwest, this burger from WhiteCastle is the 2am go-to. These famous burgers are called "sliders" by the locals.

Pete's Burgers in Prairie du Chein, Wisconsin have made these for over 100 years and they are the best.

I'd add some powdered onion soup mix with the water and get your flame thrower out to try and get a crust on the outside? New school meets old school?
