Skewering the onions with metal or soaked wooden skewers keeps the slices together while grilling.

Ingredients

    2 tbsp (25 mL) Dijon mustard
    2 tbsp (25 mL) maple syrup
    1 tsp (5 mL) cider vinegar
    1 small red onion
    1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil
    1 pinch salt and pepper
    4 hamburger buns
    Patties:
    1 egg
    1 tbsp (15 mL) water
    3/4 cup (175 mL) shredded extra-old Canadian cheddar cheese
    1/4 cup (50 mL) dry bread crumbs
    1 garlic clove, minced
    1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
    1/2 tsp (2 mL) dried sage
    1/4 tsp (1 mL) pepper
    1 lb (454 g) lean ground pork

Preparation

Patties: In bowl, beat egg with water; stir in Cheddar cheese, bread crumbs, garlic, salt, sage and pepper. Mix in pork. Shape into four 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick patties. Set aside.

In small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, maple syrup and cider vinegar; set aside.

Cut onion into 4 generous 1/4-inch (5 mm) thick slices. Push metal or soaked wooden skewer horizontally through centre of each slice.

Brush both sides of onion slices with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until tender, about 10 minutes. Remove skewers from onion slices.

Meanwhile, place patties on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and grill for 5 minutes.

Turn patties and brush with half of the mustard mixture; grill for 5 minutes.

Turn patties again and brush with remaining mustard mixture; grill until digital thermometer inserted sideways into centre of patties reads 160°F (71°C), 2 to 4 minutes.
