INGREDIENTS

• 2 pounds lean ground beef
• 1/4 cup catsup
• 3 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
• 1/4 teaspoon pepper
• 1 medium onion, thinly sliced, separated into rings
• 2 ounces Swiss cheese, cut into 1/2-inch strips
• 1 large tomato, thinly sliced
• Giant Bun (recipe follows)
• For Giant Bun:
• 1 loaf (1 pound) honey cracked wheat frozen bread dough
• 2 tablespoons butter, softened

DIRECTIONS

• Combine ground beef, catsup, mustard and pepper, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Line a 9-inch round baking pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil; shape beef mixture into a large patty, pressinq lightly but firmly into pan. Remove patty from pan.
• Place burger on grid over medium-high coals. Place cover on cooker and grill 7 minutes. To turn, slide a flat baking sheet under burger. Hold a flat plate over burger, flip over and carefully slide uncooked side back onto grid. Continue grilling, covered, 7 minutes, to desired doneness. Arrange onion rings and cheese on top of burger during last minute of cooking. Remove from grid with flat baking sheet.
• Toast cut sides of Giant Bun on grid 1 minute. Place burger on bottom half of bun; arrange tomato slices on top of cheese and cover with top of bun. Cut into wedges. Note: To cook on a brazier, increase cooking time 3 minutes.
• To Cook Giant Bun: Thaw bread dough as directed on package. Shape into round flat loaf to fit a greased 9-inch round baking pan; let rise in warm place until doubled in volume (approximately 4 to 6 hours). Bake in moderate oven (350°F) 30 to 35 minutes. Cool. Slice loaf crosswise in half; spread cut sides with butter. Makes one 9-inch bun.
