Put the burgers on the grill and the onions on the veg grate. The onions only cook on 1 side. Do not flip them. They may get a little black on the bottom, but that's OK. They'll still taste great.

When blood droplets form on the top of the burgers, they are ready to be flipped. Cook the burgers to an internal temperature of 160\u00b0. Top with a slice if cheddar cheese about a minute before done.
