How to Make A W Papa Burger
- In a large bowl, gently combine ground beef, 1/4 cup of A&W root beer, salt, and pepper. Avoid overmixing.
- Shape the beef mixture into four equal-sized patties, slightly larger than your buns.
- Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced onions and cook until softened and lightly browned.
- Remove onions from the skillet and set aside. Add beef patties to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
- During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on each patty to allow it to melt.
- Toast hamburger buns lightly.
- Assemble the burgers by placing the cooked patties on the bottom buns, top with the cooked onions and your favorite toppings.
- Place the top bun on each burger and serve immediately.
- Enjoy your homemade A&W Papa Burger copycat!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
