-While burger is cooking, melt butter in fry pan on medium heat or in electric skillet (set at 350 degrees).
-Spread mayonnaise onto bread.
-Drop bread, dry side down, onto melted pools and swirl to coat (to avoid sticking/burning).
-Cover one slice of bread with two slices of Swiss cheese and the other with two slices of cheddar.
-In a separate frying/sauté pan, melt butter and sauté sliced onions.
-Season with salt, pepper and garlic while heating.
-Place cooked burger patty on top of one cheese-topped slice of bread and the sautéed onions on the other.
