A good hamburger is sought after when we go to restaurants and is talked about in our home as to where to find one. One of the best hamburgers in our opinion is the Pretzel Burger. My husband, Kerry, designed this burger after eating one at a German Restaurant. He absolutely loved the burger so came up with his own recipe. When he made it the first time it was a hit with our family and is often requested. This recipe makes 6 Pretzel Burgers.

6 Pretzel Buns
6 Slices Munster Cheese, for topping
Inglehoffer Original Stone Ground Mustard, for topping
Heinz Worcestershire Sauce2 Red Onions, thin sliced
1/4 c. butter
2 pounds of lean ground beef
2 tsp. Weber Gourmet Burger Seasoning
1/4 c, Red Wine Vinegar
3 Tbs. Brown Sugar
3 Tbs. Balsamic Vinegar
In a bowl add Red Wine Vinegar and Weber Burger Seasoning to ground beef. Mix and let sit while you prepare the onions. Slice the red onions thin. Melt butter in a large fry pan over medium heat. Add onions, brown sugar and Balsamic Vinegar. Cook and stir until the onions are soft.
Prepare ground beef mixture by dividing into 1/3 pound patties. Put a dimple in the middle of the burgers before cooking. In a large fry pan on medium heat add Worcestershire Sauce and cook the patties for 5 minutes on one side. Turn the burgers and add more Worcestershire Sauce to taste. Cook 5 more minutes until the patties are cooked through. Add cheese to the top of the burgers and put the lid on the pan until the cheese melts. Immediately take out of the pan and dress the burger.
Toast the buns, then put a thick layer of mustard on the bottom inside of the bun. Add the burger and top with the cooked red onions. Serve.
