ingredients
- 3 cups sliced onions
- 4 teaspoons olive oil
- 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
- 1 lb lean ground beef
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1⁄2 teaspoon fresh coarse ground black pepper
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 3⁄4 cup shredded swiss cheese (3 ounces)
- 4 slices French bread, 3/4-inch-thick diagonally cut
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
directions
- In a large skillet cook onion in the 4 teaspoons hot oil over medium heat about 10 minutes or until golden brown; stir occasionally. Stir in salt and a 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cover; keep warm.
- Meanwhile, in a large bowl combine beef, Worcestershire sauce, the 1/2 teaspoon of pepper, and the garlic. Divide into eight equal portions. Shape each portion into a 4-inch diameter patty. Place one-fourth of the cheese on each of four of the patties. Top with the remaining patties, pressing down lightly and sealing edges well. Grill patties directly over medium coals for 14 to 18 minutes or until done (160 degrees F), turning once halfway through grilling. (Or, place patties on the unheated rack of a broiler pan. Broil 3 to 4 inches from heat for 14 to 18 minutes or until done, turning once halfway through broiling.).
- Brush bread slices lightly with the 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add bread slices to grill rack or broiler pan the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking time or until toasted, turning once. To serve, place patty on a toasted French bread slice; top with onion mixture.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
<p>I recently celebrated my 19th anniversary living in SW Florida. I moved here from Massachusetts, just north of Boston. As much as I miss family back home, I truly love living here - the beaches, the tropical beauty, the people, and the weather (except the hurricanes!). Everyday is just another day in Paradise. I work at the new international airport here in Fort Myers. I have an opportunity to meet many different and interesting people from around the world. I've had an interest in cooking since I was a little boy, following my grandmother around the kitchen. Since I wasn't blessed with any artistic or musical talent, I think cooking was my way of being creative. My passion is my family and friends. My second passion is cooking for them. My favorite way to entertain is informally...brunches, cookouts, and small dinner parties. Just relaxing, enjoying each other's company, some good food and drink, and a little fun are the only rules of the house.</p>
