Hands down, the best burger I have ever had in my lifetime and just sheer perfection from the roasted tomatoes and caramelized onions to the sundried tomato basil aioli.
I have been eagerly waiting to post this recipe for SO SO SO long! It is easily my favorite burger that I have ever made and ever eaten. I was seriously so blown away by it. It is a little bit more time-consuming than a regular burger, but so worth it. First off, the sundried tomato aioli is unbelievable. It's a very easy thing to make and set aside while you fix the other stuff for the burger. I just love seeing all the specks of tomato and basil flavor in it. The caramelized onions....yes. I could eat caramelized onions on every dang burger for the rest of my life. But what I really really dug was the roasted plum tomatoes. The juiciness of the tomatoes was the perfect addition to the burger. I could not say enough things about this burger to do it justice.
