George: "This is a simple burger, all you need is five ingredients!" Me: "Sweet, I can make this tonight!" George: "...and a deli slicer!" Me: "bloody hell..."
Lol. You could probably griddle some thinly sliced onion with a touch of salt for a bit on the side before starting the burger smash. (If you do not have the mandoline suggested by TheBrutalWaffle.)
I made a double Oklahoma Fried Onion Burger for the fist time this evening. 80/ 20 organic beef chuck, salt, onions and American cheese. Unfortunately, we can't get potato rolls here in The Netherlands. Nonetheless, warmed up my bun as in the video. This is an excellent method of making a burger, so simple and the results are so irresistably tasty. With the house still smelling of fried onions and beef, I now want another one.
Sir, I'm going to have to report you to the proper authorities for violation of Hamburger Code ; 1045-B.. Stating that ALL hamburger/cheeseburgers must be butchered, smashed, and seared with a beef/fat mixture of NO GREATER than 70/30... Sorry but I have no choice but to call the 'Flavor Police' so you can be re-educated in proper burger etiquette...
I made these today. A couple notes: instead of a mandolin, you can in a pinch use the widest side of a box cheese grater for the onions. They won’t be paper thin, but they’ll be close. I was a bit skeptical of the whole purist approach with no toppings besides a pickle or two, but as soon as I bit into it, it was the most burger-tasting burger I have ever tasted. To me, it tasted of racetrack or state fair food stands. Any place that has one of those white corrugated plastic diner menus with black stick-on letters and red numbers.
I'm from Chile, but one of my favorite places to eat burgers (named Fuente Reñaca) sells the most amazing smashburgers and they use Martin's Potato Rolls, which are not very common around my country. I absolutely love the squishy bread, the perfect container for a great burger! Today I ordered a double from there. Delicious!

@@manbiteslife3110 Buy big chunks of ham. Slice it as thin as possible, cause my butcher is incapable of cutting anything thinner than his huge thumb, it seems. That was my plan. Did it once. Never did it again. Maybe you can try that. Spent 300 Euros on that thing like an idiot.
I just tried this recipe, and wolfed down the burger. It's incredible! I think I'll make it again tomorrow, and the day after. That's a cracking recipe.

Thank you so much for this content. I made one for my dad and he was blown away. The onions turned out a little different because I took your burger idea and combined it with how Sam the Cooking Guy saute onions for a burger. Both of you had contributed to the most outstanding Burger of all.
Played in an AAU baseball tournament in El Reno about 25 years ago and we ate these daily. Thought of it today and found this video. Mine turned out great. Managed to get razor thin onions with the right mandolin. Tasted amazing. Love the bun steaming tip. Works perfect.
Oka Georgie.....after buying your book and reading it a few times and dreaming of this I did it tonight on the Kamado. Instantly transported to a diner in Oklahoma. Very fun, very tasty. Thanks for turning me on to this!
I almost didn't try this one because of the deli slicer, but I used a cheapo walmart mandolin slicer that I'd bought long ago and never actually tried before and the onion sliced very thin. After eating this Oklahoman art, the mustard and ketchup bottles are hereby banished. The subtle flavors of onion, salt and beef are better without those heavy flavors on top. I think that condiments got started to disguise the flavor of old beef. Thanks George! You may have ended my Saturday hamburger odyssey right here with this one.
For those of us who don't have a deli slicer to slice our onions that thin you can simply use a mandolin slicer it'll fit in your kitchen drawer and you can find one for under 20 bucks it will slice your onions just as thin as his fancy deli slicer
Love me some George Motz! Been following this guy for years - you just had to know where to look. It's one thing to know something, but another to recreate it. George IS the man!
Did the combination of majestic sideburns and clear, unadulterated enthusiasm for burgercraft just make me a believer in love at first sight? Seemed like such a normal day...
This makes me miss going to the White Manna in Hackensack. Wanted to go back there before quarantine started. That place was shoulder-to-shoulder sitting when it wasn't busy.
I love George. And I love smashed onion burgers. I use super thin mandolin sliced red onions. I also like to be liking melty schmelty Munster cheese. Whole pickled jalapeños on the side. Cast iron mandatory.
My brother's former wife had a condition where onions- even the smallest amount- would make her violently run at both ends. Had nothing to do with whether she liked them or not. She told me this because I bugged her about always having to make sure her food at family dinners was completely onion-free....I thought she was just being a picky pain in the butt and I felt really bad when I learned the truth. It was a terrible thing because onions- especially in the form of onion powder- are in LOTS of packaged/processed food.....she had to be ultra-careful with everything.
Probably because people put them on raw like horrible monsters. I for one like to taste my food. Raw onions overwhelm everything else to the point where you wonder why it's even there.... You certainly can't taste the rest.
Just tried this. Best burger I’ve ever made. I diced the onions really small instead of slicing them and it worked great. Made it easy for them to mold into the meat. Then I used a Raising Cane style sauce and some lettuce.
I didn't even realize this was on the Martin's Potato Roll channel until the last second. Usually videos like this would be obnoxious with advertising but just felt like a regular cooking show. Also, that burger looks freaking amazing
When I make these I use my simple veggie peeler to slice up the onions. It's more messy and will make your eyes tear up but it works. You just slice the onion in all directions and get as close to the core as possible until you can't hold the onion any longer. Once done just take the onions in your bowl and hold it to the side and squeeze them good to get all the water out into the sink. Do that a couple of times.
@@Dan-hn1lx Green, white, Purple. Cooked or raw. Can't do it. And people put onions in everything. They taste like a bad chemical that make me want to barf since I was a kid. But I love cilantro? lol
@@RadNitro Yeah that sucks, especially because they're one of the most used vegetables. I feel bad for picky eaters, wish you guys could enjoy food most people like.
@Annabelle Wheelis I was simply responding to the notion that you need expensive equipment to make this "simple" burger. You do not. About $30 will get you a cast iron skillet and a mandolin. Those are pretty basic tools.
For a northeast company, you wanna showcase a burger to its NE demo they prob hadn't seen on their bun, or at least a lil different variation of the oniony goodness out of Northern NJ (the true slider, white manna hacksensack)
@@vivalavelveeta the problem with the ones in Ontario is that they ship them up here frozen and they thaw them before putting them on the shelves, found some at Pusitaris once that were still frozen and asked about why and was told that they freeze them so the can extend the freshness date on the packets since they would expire by the time they got here from shipping from the states.
No, but mandolins predate tomato-based ketchup, which would have achieved the same effect. So would sufficient knife skills. Both predate hamburgers. Stop being pointlessly hostile.
@@Thuazabi Yay for knife skills! Although if you're doing a lot of onions a slicer is a wonderful thing. I would hate to have to NEED one, though. The fewer gizmos you have to rely on, the better cook you are IMO.
Smashing them within 30 seconds doesn't cause all the juices to come out because it hasn't cooked yet. This has been tested if you want to research it online... maybe a very minimal amount of juice loss compared to no smashing. What you get, is an abundance of delicious crispy edges that form a contrast to the rich fattiness and creamy cheese. You won't get these crispy edges on a traditional BBQ or steakhouse burger. It's not necessarily BETTER than a delicious steakhouse burger style, just different and amazing. The smashburger is my general go to for the typical burger I make in the house about once every week or 2.
I grew up in Yukon, OK. A hop, skip, and a jump away from El Reno. El Reno is home to Sid's Diner and Johnny's Grill. They had diners in Yukon too, but we always went to El Reno (Home of the Fried Onion Burger Festival). I will say that they use Spanish White Onions, but when I make them at home I use Vidalia's or Texas 1015 Sweets. There is a Triangle of Flavor in this part of the country. Sid's for their onion burgers and coneys (trust me, the slaw is my crack), Don's BBQ in Minco (sadly closed), and Eischen's Chicken in Okarche (oldest bar in OK). Between those 3 places I was raised in Nirvana. I think you did those burgers proud! I hope everyone takes a road trip and goes to Sid's and Eischen's. Your mouth will thank you.
Pressing and smashing burgers are 2 different things, making a smashed burger on a griddle allows for more maillard reaction as you're doing it before the fat has a chance to melt. Pressing a burger is just forcing all the moisture and fat out as it's cooking.
Ok... but it's the actual burger that's called the Oklahoma onion burger, he chose the potato buns, it's not a requirement for the burger. Damn dude, you can make the burger on any bun and it will still be an Oklahoma onion burger.
@@TheRoadhammer379 Wow....that really set you off, didn't it? As an Oklahoman I have to say it's WAY ironic that he chose to make such an iconic exemplar of Oklahoma regional cuisine with a bun which isn't available there. Dude.
i'm sat watching this vid right now having just made my very own Oklahoma Fried onion burgers (although i don't have a deli slicer, i just sliced the onions uber thin with a knife). The simple things are usually the best things and it's so true with this burger!
Your burger looks delicious and amazing yummyyyy. We started using those delicious Martin jumbo Hot Dog buns 2 years ago when we serve our brisket at events !!!
LOL!!! I'm a plant fanatic and I kept looking at that thing like, what the hell kind of plant is that!??? Then I was like, OMG it's a freaking tumbleweed!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I spent 15 years as a touring/recording drummer in Tulsa. Shockingly rich musical culture there because of Route 66. I’ve eaten burgers damn near every where but Tulsa is the champ on bad ass burgers. If you’re ever in Oklahoma...Bill’s Jumbo Burger is the consensus champ but they are all special. Claud’s, Brownie’s, Weber’s Root Beer, Freddie’s....I know I’m missing a few but damnit, man. Love this fella.
I'm from El Reno Oklahoma the burgers are delicious ! You can smell the fried onions sometimes driving through town . El reno also has the Onion fried burger day the first Saturday of May ! Thats when they cook the biggest onion fried burger . Roberts Grill , Sids Dinner , and Johnny's Grill are famous for the Onion fried burgers .
Ok, no joke.....I happened across some Martin's burger buns at our local HEB supermarket. Dude, theeee best! It makes the burger. They're so good, the meat just plays a supporting roll to the bun.

@@vivalavelveeta the problem with the ones in Ontario is that they ship them up here frozen and they thaw them before putting them on the shelves, found some at Pusitaris once that were still frozen and asked about why and was told that they freeze them so the can extend the freshness date on the packets since they would expire by the time they got here from shipping from the states.
George Motz and Martins Potato Rolls is a match made in burger heaven.
Look at all those books! Commendable.
This dude looks like Sabretooth and Mr. Rogers had a baby.
Damn I need me a Deli slicer
Mandolin not slicer a mandolin is way cheaper and gets them paper thin
@@donhgr Or a sharp knife and good skills.
"Use of onions predates ketchup and cheese"
do deli slicers predate ketchup and cheese as well?
No, but mandolins predate tomato-based ketchup, which would have achieved the same effect. So would sufficient knife skills. Both predate hamburgers. Stop being pointlessly hostile.
Yes. As well as Doritos, Cheetos, or even Fritos
@@knxtta consider adding LoL at the end, that helps people to take it as joke !!
peacezenmusic didnt sound like a joke lol
@@Thuazabi Yay for knife skills! Although if you're doing a lot of onions a slicer is a wonderful thing. I would hate to have to NEED one, though. The fewer gizmos you have to rely on, the better cook you are IMO.
Got me craving an onion burger while I'm at work now... thanks for the video!
All of a sudden I started smelling onions! It's true! Looks delicious! 👍👍
This is a white castle burger's great grandfather.

Only with better ingredients and minus the diarrhea

We need a recipe for the martins Potato Rolls 🔥🔥🔥
“And I smash them down” Gordon Ramsey has left the room
Smashing them within 30 seconds doesn't cause all the juices to come out because it hasn't cooked yet. This has been tested if you want to research it online... maybe a very minimal amount of juice loss compared to no smashing. What you get, is an abundance of delicious crispy edges that form a contrast to the rich fattiness and creamy cheese. You won't get these crispy edges on a traditional BBQ or steakhouse burger.
It's not necessarily BETTER than a delicious steakhouse burger style, just different and amazing. The smashburger is my general go to for the typical burger I make in the house about once every week or 2.
Gordon doesn't know everything.
@@justinsmith1001 are you know what temperature have the planch
I grew up in Yukon, OK. A hop, skip, and a jump away from El Reno. El Reno is home to Sid's Diner and Johnny's Grill. They had diners in Yukon too, but we always went to El Reno (Home of the Fried Onion Burger Festival). I will say that they use Spanish White Onions, but when I make them at home I use Vidalia's or Texas 1015 Sweets. There is a Triangle of Flavor in this part of the country. Sid's for their onion burgers and coneys (trust me, the slaw is my crack), Don's BBQ in Minco (sadly closed), and Eischen's Chicken in Okarche (oldest bar in OK). Between those 3 places I was raised in Nirvana. I think you did those burgers proud! I hope everyone takes a road trip and goes to Sid's and Eischen's. Your mouth will thank you.
Doing the buns rising thing has been a staple since teen years. The cheese flip is a new thought.
Looks amazing!
They need to find whomever said to not press burger patties, tie them to the person who said to only flip a steak once and fire them into deep space.
SMashed burgers and Grilled burgers are 2 different beasts.
Pressing and smashing burgers are 2 different things, making a smashed burger on a griddle allows for more maillard reaction as you're doing it before the fat has a chance to melt. Pressing a burger is just forcing all the moisture and fat out as it's cooking.
I almost thought he wasn't gonna say "letting it ride"
"Use this bun to make an Oklahoman burger" Can't get that bun in Oklahoma.
Ok... but it's the actual burger that's called the Oklahoma onion burger, he chose the potato buns, it's not a requirement for the burger. Damn dude, you can make the burger on any bun and it will still be an Oklahoma onion burger.
@@TheRoadhammer379 Wow....that really set you off, didn't it? As an Oklahoman I have to say it's WAY ironic that he chose to make such an iconic exemplar of Oklahoma regional cuisine with a bun which isn't available there. Dude.
i'm sat watching this vid right now having just made my very own Oklahoma Fried onion burgers (although i don't have a deli slicer, i just sliced the onions uber thin with a knife). The simple things are usually the best things and it's so true with this burger!
Your burger looks delicious and amazing yummyyyy.
We started using those delicious Martin jumbo Hot Dog buns 2 years ago when we serve our brisket at events !!!
I didn't realize that the impoverished families of Oaklahoma have always had deli slicers.
Yeah, all oklahomans are dirt poor!
Most people used to have a meat slicer before grocery stores were on every corner, especially farming families.
*Oklahoma 🙄. Education is awesome!
@@JulieT.. Only states that matter deserve to be spelled properly.
Don't be alarmed, but there is a floating tumble weed behind you!
He is trying to model his hair on that tumbleweed.
LOL!!! I'm a plant fanatic and I kept looking at that thing like, what the hell kind of plant is that!??? Then I was like, OMG it's a freaking tumbleweed!!! 🤣🤣🤣
This man looks like Sean Schemmel, a lot nicer though ofc
Burger Man is the upgrade you get on your Walmart Sean Schemmel
Or Wolverines nearsighted cousin!
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who thought this lol
Literally told my wife this same thing today!
I spent 15 years as a touring/recording drummer in Tulsa. Shockingly rich musical culture there because of Route 66. I’ve eaten burgers damn near every where but Tulsa is the champ on bad ass burgers. If you’re ever in Oklahoma...Bill’s Jumbo Burger is the consensus champ but they are all special. Claud’s, Brownie’s, Weber’s Root Beer, Freddie’s....I know I’m missing a few but damnit, man. Love this fella.
I'm from El Reno Oklahoma the burgers are delicious ! You can smell the fried onions sometimes driving through town . El reno also has the Onion fried burger day the first Saturday of May ! Thats when they cook the biggest onion fried burger . Roberts Grill , Sids Dinner , and Johnny's Grill are famous for the Onion fried burgers .
Man, I didn't know Wolverine was such a good cook. He probably brought in the deli slicer so he wouldn't have to show off his claws. Nice video!
I'm not going to lie, this is literally the best burger I've ever had show up in my life, thank god for the burger scholar!!!!
Ok, no joke.....I happened across some Martin's burger buns at our local HEB supermarket. Dude, theeee best! It makes the burger. They're so good, the meat just plays a supporting roll to the bun.
Best video on an onion burger! All the other guys, really 12 minutes? You cooking the whole cow? LOL Thanks for a great video! Short and sweet...
Totally mouthwatering video! Looked so GOOOOD!
