Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons neutral-flavored oil (substitute with butter or tallow)
- 1 large peeled small diced yellow onion
- 2 pounds freshly ground 80/20 beef
- 4 teaspoons adobo seasoning
- 2 teaspoons sazón seasoning
- 4-5 American cheese slices (per 1 pound of beef)
- 4 soft hero (hoagie, French, or sub buns, sliced in half lengthwise)
- 8 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 4 tablespoons ketchup
- 16 slices of fresh Roma tomatoes
- 2 cups shredded iceberg lettuce

Method
- Heat the oil on a griddle or in a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat and cook the onion with a little salt for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until well browned. Set aside.
- Flatten half the beef across the hot griddle, season with half the adobo seasoning and half the sazón seasoning, and cook 2 to 3 minutes.
- Chop the beef into small pieces with spatulas, mix in half the onion, lay over half the cheese and chop again until the cheese melts through. Repeat with the remaining beef, seasoning, onion and cheese.
- Toast the split rolls cut-side down on the griddle in a little of the mayonnaise for 2 to 3 minutes.
- Spread the rolls with the remaining mayonnaise and the ketchup, fill with the cheesy beef, tomato slices and lettuce, close, wrap in foil for 1 to 2 minutes, then slice.
