This is a grilled version of the classic patty melt sandwich on rye bread. Simple and delicious!

Ingredients

1 pound ground beef
1 pinch salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
1 onion , sliced
6 slices dark rye bread
3 slices American cheese
3 slices Swiss cheese

Instructions

1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
2

Pat out three 1/3-pound hamburger patties, pressing each patty down with your index and middle fingers to get a nice, flat burger instead of a ball. Season patties on both sides with salt and pepper.
3

Cook on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the centers, 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).
4

Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Increase heat to medium-low, add onion, and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
5

Place 3 slices of bread on the grill. Top each with a slice of American cheese, a cooked patty, sauteed onions, a slice of Swiss cheese, and the remaining bread. Grill sandwiches until cheese melts, about 1 minute per side.
