  • Potato Buns

    2 units

  • Salt

Cooking steps
1
  • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. Wash and dry produce.

  • Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion; mince a few slices until you have 2 TBSP (4 TBSP for 4 servings). Cut potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Halve buns.

  • In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with chipotle powder to taste (start with a pinch, then taste and add more from there if desired). Season with salt and pepper; set aside.

2
  • Melt 1 TBSP butter in a large pan over medium heat. Add sliced onion and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, 10-15 minutes. TIP: Lower heat and add a splash of water if onion begins to brown too quickly.

  • Stir in half the BBQ sauce (you’ll use the rest later); cook until sauce is warmed through, 1-2 minutes more.

  • Turn off heat; transfer to a medium bowl. Wash out pan.

3
  • While onion cooks, toss potatoes on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, half the Fry Seasoning (you’ll use the rest later), salt, and pepper.

  • Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

4
  • While potatoes roast, in a large bowl, combine pork*, minced onion, remaining Fry Seasoning, salt (we used ½ tsp; 1 tsp for 4 servings), and pepper.

  • Form into two patties (four patties for 4), each slightly wider than a burger bun.

5
  • Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for onion over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook until browned and cooked through, 4-7 minutes per side.

  • In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top each patty with cheddar; cover pan until cheese melts.

  • While patties cook, toast buns until golden.

6
  • Spread bottom buns with remaining BBQ sauce. Spread top buns with chipotle aioli. Fill buns with patties and caramelized onion.

  • Divide burgers between plates and serve with potato wedges on the side.
