In a pot, over medium heat, add butter. Once melted and hot, add sliced onions. Season with salt and a pinch of sugar. Cook for 2030 on medium low heat, stirring occasionally until deeply caramelized. Then add garlic and cook for 1 more minute. Keep warm.
In a small bowl, add mayo, mustard, ketchup, pickles, salt and pepper. Mix well until combined. Set aside.
In a griddle pan, over medium heat, add butter. Once melted and bubbly, toast your buns until golden on cut sides.
In a cast iron skillet, over medium high heat, once very hot and smoking, spray with oil. Then add two balls of meat and squash with a spatula until 1/3 inch thick. Season with S&P and let cook for 1 minute. Then flip, season again, add a slice of cheese and cover with a lid. Once cheese is melted, remove from pan.
