Preparation facts

Total Time: 30 minutes

Yield: 4 servings

Ingredients

1- 1/2 lbs ground beef

1/4 cup beer

1/4 cup prepared steak sauce

4 slices sweet onion (1/2-inch)

4 slices (1 ounce each) Swiss cheese

4 crusty rolls, split

Lettuce leaves

Directions

Combine beer and steak sauce in 1-cup glass measure. Cover and microwave on HIGH 1 to 1-1/2 minutes or until bubbly.

Lightly shape ground beef into four 3/4-inch thick patties. Place patties in centre of grid over medium, ash-covered coals; arrange onion around patties. Grill, uncovered, 13 to 15 minutes to medium (160°F) doneness, until patties are not pink in centre and juices show no pink colour and onions are tender, turning occasionally. Season with salt after turning. About 2 minutes before patties are done, brush generously with sauce; top with cheese.

Serve burgers and onions in rolls with lettuce and sauce.
