While the burgers rest briefly to retain their juiciness, the chef focuses on warming the buns or toast, preparing toppings, and ensuring every element is in place for assembly. The caramelized onions, now deeply flavorful, are ready to crown the patty.

The chef emphasizes the aesthetic and taste of stacking the components—cheese, onions, and a generous squeeze of his special sauce. The sauce features American cheese, shredded iceberg lettuce, ketchup, mustard, mayo, and bread— a secret blend that creates a luscious, flavorful coating.
