Thank you Raid Shadow Legends  for sponsoring this video.  We all love juicy burgers. Oh yeah I mean take  a look at this! This is comfort food at its best.   And for today's video this one was  born out of necessity which in some   ways saved our nation from the great  depression. This is making the burger   that changed history, a true national treasure  aka the Oklahoma Onion Burger. So let's do it Between 1929 and 1939 right after the stock market  crashed there was a lot of uncertainties and   hunger in the united states. Meat was expensive so  to fill up the burger they used onions. And for my   take on this amazing burger I'm gonna be using  these. And at least to me they have a lot more   flavor than white sweet onions, so I definitely  recommend them. Now the first thing we need to   do is to get these onions as thin as possible and  obviously our first thought is to grab a knife and   go to town. But it really does not matter how much  you try there's no way that you can be as precise   as a mandolin, so I highly recommend one but at  the same time we all know that this tool can   be dangerous. The last thing we need is to get hurt.  So here's my biggest tip whenever you're using one; definitely use a guard for it. As always if you  are interested on the ones I use always find it   on the description down below. Having a guard  like this ensures that nothing will happen to   your fingers. Trust me I'm telling you that from  experience. the mandolin is not only wonderful to   keep your fingers safe but it also makes the job  a lot faster and he also keeps every single one   the same size, that is important so that we get  wonderful results. But once I was done cutting   all of my onions this is what I was left with.  As you can see they are so thin it's even hard   to distinguish what they are. I'm telling you get  them as thin as you can because you will have an   amazing burger. The next important ingredient is  the meat. Remember this is a cheap burger but at   the same time it does not need to be boring, so I'm  using ground beef which is 80 /20. As you know that   means 80 percent meat and 20 fat, to me that is the  perfect ratio for any burger. Before going outside   and grilling them I like to go ahead and make some  balls out of it. This will speed up the process and   it will make the smashing really easy, because this  burger is all about good technique. And I'm pretty   sure that once you make some of them man you're  gonna make them all the time. Now we gotta remember   that this burger was made when there was not a lot  of money to go around so you don't have to make   humongous balls, I was aiming for three ounces. Now  the next ingredient is actually optional but I'm   pretty sure during the great depression there was  not a lot of cheese like this. And we're talking   about the good old American cheese. Nothing melts  as good as this! And for a burger it is perfect, don't let anyone else tell you otherwise. Now for  the bread they normally use potato buns but hey   my favorite are these and if you have not seen my  recipe on how to make them you should they are not   only easy to make but they are delicious. I like to  call them Guga's buns. The last ingredients that   they usually put on these burgers are pickles  and you better believe I'm gonna add some.   Sauce is also optional, usually they just throw in  mustard but I wanna see how wonderful it tastes  and I'm gonna be using no sauce at all. But now  that we have all of these ingredients ready all   there's left to do is to go ahead and make this  amazing burger. The first thing to do is to smash   the patties once that's done you lay down a good  amount of onions right on top, then you flip it   once and finish up the burger. But I know that  sounds like a lot of talking and I agree with   you. So now I say it is enough talking and it is  time to make this amazing burger. So let's do it! Before moving forward I want to thank today's  sponsor Raid Shadow Legends. Make sure you use the   links down below to download Raid to your mobile  device or pc.

All right everybody here we have our beautiful onion burgers Maumau. -I see a lot of onions there. -Yes a lot of onions you know a long time ago   during the depression they didn't have a lot of meat so to make  it nice and full they fill it up with onions.   That's what they did. -That makes sense. -There's  nothing wrong with onions everybody. -Not at all. -Me and Maumau we love onions, Angel on the other hand  hates them with passion. -Angel doesn't like a lot   of things. -Yes if there's anything green in there  forget about it too he cannot have that either.   I'm excited for this everybody. -Lets go with the original? -Original. -I tried everything I could not to try this   burger. As you guys can see here it is extremely  juicy everybody and I think that's the secret   of this burger, a nice messy burger is a better  burger. -It's always good. -Cheers everybody. Cheers! -Wow. -Sweet go ahead Maumau, go ahead. -I haven't even  finished tasting it already and I'm already like   wow. -The sweetness of the onion is incredible.  Here's the thing what happened is a lot of the   onions are either a little bit charred a little  bit caramelized some of them are barely cooked   it's like a mix of all the onions together. -So it  gives you a bunch of different textures at the   same time together on top of the awesome, awesome  beef. -I see Maumau took a few bites before he   wants to even explain it. The onions is absolutely  incredible. It's like caramelized onions with the   burning onions well you already know. -I'm not  usually a pickle fan but I really, really like the   pickle here. -It goes well because you balance it  out. Yeah. -You know what I mean. -Perfect complement   to this. -There's a lot of fat in here everybody it's 80/20 beef you know what I mean. It's not like lean   beef or anything like that. Let's stop eating because we have to try the other one. -Yes let's go for the next   on Maumau before we actually start getting  full over here.-Look at this. -Now, the second one Maumau is   almost over already. All right let's go for this  one right here. Now I'll tell you one thing, wow   wow I hope this is coming through the camera  nicely everybody. I really hope you can see it. I  don't know if i got a nice shot of the midsection  or not I was too excited just to cook this thing. Okay nice greasy iImean take a look at this grease.   Mine is already split in half yours is not. -Mine is not but this thing is heavy. This thing is like... -Okay Maumau, I say enough talking. -That's a big boy.  Let's give it a try. Cheers everybody. -Cheers everybody. -Cheese makes everything better, even though he's  lactose intolerant but he likes cheese everybody.  Huh Maumau? -Oh my God. -It is so much better with the cheese. -The  original they didn't have cheese? -The original   didn't have anything Maumau, they only  had a little bit of patty and a lot of onions.  -Do it with the cheese guys if you don't do it  with the cheese you don't know what your missing. -Yeah and the cheese just brings it all together  you know what I mean it just combines everything   it makes it more gooey, more texture, more flavorful,  more everything. The cheese is definitely worth   putting it I'll tell you that right now. American  cheese, not provolone, don't go fancy and crazy   some mustard cheese no no no no no no. -No craft  singles cheese. -Yes the cheapest one that you can   find they have the special version where they come  without the wrapper.-No, not the fancy. -No, no,no grab the   one with the wrapper everybody, go cheap and you're gonna  be happy. -Store brand if you can. -Yeah you will be   happy. -The cheese one is a flavor bomb but I have  to come back to the original cuz is too much. -You don't want   to take three pills just one pill? -Oh no no no  no I'm already, this bomb is already exploding on   my stomach okay. -This is definitely amazing  everybody definitely give it a try. You will not   regret it, there's absolutely nothing that can  make this better. Don't put any ketchup, mayo   or nothing it doesn't need it, it doesn't. Where, what  happened Maumau? The original is already on your belly?   I hope you guys enjoyed this video, if you do  enjoy it make sure you give it a thumbs up.
