If you’re obsessed with this trending In-N-Out specialty, you’re going to love this Onion Wrapped Flying Dutchman recipe! Use your Blackstone Griddle or cast-iron skillet to make these delicious bunless burgers!

What Does the Flying Dutchman Taste Like?

Who doesn’t love caramelized onions and cheesy smash burger patties all wrapped up in one gooey burger? It’s rich, beefy, and savory. Top these bunless burgers with a healthy dose of a slightly tart, creamy “spread” for the complete experience! And while you’re at it, serve some delicious fries or onion rings on the side.

Equipment

I find that using my Blackstone Griddle makes all the difference. It’s fast, convenient, and supplies good even heating for caramelizing onions and creating the perfect smash burger patties. If you don’t currently have one, you can certainly make these on a camping griddle or large cast-iron skillet on the grill or stovetop. You’ll also need a smash burger press or a sturdy metal spatula.

Recipe Ingredients

• Ground beef, 80/20
• 2 large yellow onions
• 8 slices of American or cheddar cheese
• In-N-Out Burger Sauce (recipe courtesy of sabrinacooks.com)
• Salt and black pepper
• Oil (vegetable or avocado)
• Banana peppers

Make the Trending Onion-Wrapped Flying Dutchman

• Make burger sauce: Follow recipe instructions, cover, and store in refrigerator until ready to use.

• Pre-heat your grill or griddle to 375 degrees F., or medium-high heat
• Cook onions: Add a little oil to the griddle and cook the onion rounds for 2-3 minutes per side, until they are tender and golden brown.

Takeaway

These flavor-packed burgers were incredibly delicious and great for days when we want a bunless, low-carb option. They are also great for those who follow a gluten-free diet. These onion wrapped burgers are rich in savory flavor, so it’s best to pair them with a creamy secret spread and tart and spicy banana peppers!

These savory smash burgers are the perfect quick meal for busy weeknights. Preparation takes 15-20 minutes, and the actual cooking time is 6 minutes each for the onions and burger patties!

Flying Dutchman Tips

• Pre-salt the onion rounds about 10 minutes before cooking. Doing this will help caramelize the surface and add flavor.
• Use a smash burger press to achieve thin patties with crisping around the edges.
• Chop up these Onion-Wrapped Flying Dutchman burgers and use them in animal-style fries, or pair them with chopped lettuce and tomatoes to create a cheeseburger salad!
