Using a spatula or press, smash the ball into the onion, creating a burger patty. Season the patty with the Montreal Steak Seasoning. Cook for 3-4 minutes, gently turn and cook for another 5 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the patties reaches 165 degrees.Once cooked, assemble the burgers with your chosen condiments and enjoy!
