Preparation Time: 10 mins Cook Time: 10 mins Ready Time: 4 hrs 50 mins


• melt butter in a skillet over medium heat and cook and stir onion until nearly translucent, about 4 minutes; remove from heat and cool to room temperature.
• mix the beef chuck, lamb, onion, worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper in a bowl. divide the mixture into fifths and form each portion into a large burger. press an indentation in the center of each burger with your thumb to keep burgers flat while cooking. chill the patties thoroughly, 4 to 8 hours. allow burgers to warm to room temperature before cooking.
• preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• cook burgers on the hot grill until they show grill marks and the meat is no longer pink inside, about 5 minutes per side. do not press burgers with a spatula as they cook, and flip only once. let stand 1 minute before serving.
