Caramelize the onions: Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, for at least 30-40 minutes until soft and golden brown. Add a splash of water if needed to prevent sticking.

Prepare the beef patties: Divide the ground beef into four equal portions. Shape them into thick, flat patties. Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.

Cook the patties: In the same skillet (or a separate one), melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the beef patties and fry for about 5-7 minutes per side, until well browned and cooked through. Remove patties from the pan and set aside, keeping them warm.

Make the gravy: In the same skillet used for the patties, melt the remaining butter if needed. Add the flour and whisk to form a roux. Cook for 1-2 minutes. Gradually whisk in the beef stock until smooth. Bring to a simmer and cook until thickened. Add a dash of brown food coloring if desired. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
⏱️ 5-10 minutes - 5
Serve: Place the beef patties on plates, top with a generous portion of caramelized onions, and spoon the gravy over them. Serve immediately with boiled potatoes.
💡 Pro Tips: Garnish with pickled beet slices or gherkins for an extra tang.
