Directions
Step 1 -Preheat a grill to medium heat.
Step 2 -In a small bowl, add the salt, the Old Bay seasoning, the paprika, the chili powder, and the garlic salt and stir to combine. Set the spice blend aside.
Step 3 -In a medium bowl, add the mayonnaise, the ketchup, the yellow mustard, the chopped chipotle chile, and 1 1/2 teaspoons of the prepared spice blend and whisk until it is smooth. Reserve the remaining spice blend for the beef patties.
Step 4 -Place the bowl in the refrigerator and chill the sauce until ready to use.
Step 5 -In a large skillet over medium-high heat, add the extra-virgin olive oil.
Step 6 -Add the mushrooms to the heated oil and cook, undisturbed, until they are browned on the bottom, about 2 minutes.
Step 7 -Add the onions to the mushrooms and season with the salt and the pepper. Stir to combine.
Step 8 -Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook the onion-mushroom mixture, stirring occasionally, until it is tender, about 10-12 minutes.
Step 9 -Transfer the skillet from the heat and cover to keep the onion-mushroom topping warm.
Step 10 -Evenly brush the vegetable oil on the grates of the preheated grill.
Step 11 -Evenly form the beef chuck into 4 (1-inch-thick) patties and generously season them with the reserved spice blend.
Step 12 -Grill the patties until the bottoms are sizzling and browned, about 5-6 minutes.
Step 13 -Flip the patties and cook until they reach an internal temperature of 145 degrees F for medium doneness, about 5 minutes.
Step 14 -Add 1 slice of the cheese to each of the patties and evenly top with the onion-mushroom topping. Grill the burgers until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute.
Step 15 -While the cheese is melting, add the split hamburger buns to the grill and toast them.
Step 16 -Top each of the toasted bottom buns with 1 of the patties, then drizzle the sauce over each of the patties.
Step 17 -Place the top buns over each of the patties.
Step 18 -Serve.
