Greasy and savory with just a hint of sweetness, it's no wonder the Oklahoma onion burger is a beloved staple of our state's regional cuisine.
While the dish originated more than a hundred miles away in El Reno, many restaurants near our Tulsa homes for sale have developed their own versions over the years. Think you might like to give them a try? Order an Oklahoma onion burger of your own at one of these five Tulsa restaurants.
Tucker's Onion Burgers is the only Tulsa restaurant dedicated exclusively to the Oklahoma onion burger. They offer three versions of this state specialty:
All of these can be ordered with beef, turkey, or Impossible patties. They also offer a special Tucker Clucker fried chicken sandwich with all the same fixings as the single burger.
Add a side of fries and a cup of their house-made lemonade, and you've got yourself a treat of a meal bursting with Oklahoma pride.
District Burger is one of the hottest new restaurants near our Broken Arrow homes for sale, quickly winning over customers with their massive all-beef burgers and long list of specialty cocktails. Their Oklahoma Onion Burger is made with:
You can switch out the beef for pesto chicken, Impossible patties, or Wagyu beef for an extra fee. You can also get a veggie or gluten-free bun on request.
Each burger comes with a side of garlic fries that you can upgrade with toppings for an extra treat. If you're willing to pay a small surcharge, you can swap your side for appetizers like a salad or fried pickles.
Wash it all down with a can of beer or a glass of their signature Okie Gin. Avoiding alcohol? Try one of their mocktails or a hand-spun milkshake topped with fresh whipped cream.
Society Burger's Okie and Spicy Okie burgers are a little different than your standard Oklahoma onion burger. Instead of frying the onions, this restaurant mixes them right into the patties. They then top each burger with crispy deep-fried haystack onions for even more delicious onion flavor.
The standard Okie burger features American cheese and plain mayo, while the spicy version turns up the heat with pepper jack cheese, spicy mayo, and extra grilled jalapenos.
You can get either burger with a turkey patty, an Impossible patty, or a gluten-free bun for a small upcharge.
Cow and Cabbage is more than just a grocery store: They've also got a full upscale casual restaurant inside their building on East 15th. Our real estate agents love stopping by for a treat after their weekly fridge restock!
Their Signature Cow and Cabbage Burger is available during both their lunch and dinner service and is loaded with premium toppings like:
Each burger comes with a serving of chunky hand-cut fries perfect for scooping up any sauce that escapes from your sandwich. Visit on a Tuesday night to get a small promotional discount on your order.
Tucked away in a small roadside kitchen on Tulsa's Route 66, Hank's Hamburgers has been a local fast-food staple since 1949. Almost all of their burgers are modeled after the classic onion burger with a smashed patty and fried onions on top. Some of their standout menu items include:
Each burger comes with a regular-sized side of fries, fried okra, or tater tots. You can upgrade to a side of onion rings for an extra $1.50.
