Oklahoma Fried Onion Burgers

Welcome to the world of Oklahoma Fried Onion Burgers, a delightful and flavorful creation that has become a true local legend. Picture this: a juicy beef patty topped with a mountain of caramelized onions, all sandwiched between soft buns. But what sets this burger apart from the rest?

Well, it’s all in the name. Legend has it that back in the 1920s, during the Great Depression, a clever Oklahoma cook named Ross Davis came up with a brilliant idea to stretch the limited meat supply and add extra flavor to his burgers. By piling heaps of thinly sliced onions directly onto the patty, he created a delicious and affordable masterpiece. The onions cooked and caramelized beautifully, infusing the meat with their sweet and savory essence. And just like that, the Oklahoma Fried Onion Burger was born, satisfying hungry folks and gaining a well-deserved reputation as a local favorite.
