The Art of Living Well's Carmelized Onion and Brie Stuffed Sirloin Burger

My Uncle has been stuffing burgers for as long as I can remember, but I've noticed they're really making a gourmet artful comeback in the latest foodie magazines.

1 1 tsp vegetable oil
3 3 cups sliced sweet onion
1 1 Tbsp brown sugar, packed
1 1 lb ground lean sirloin steak
3 3 Tbsp minced green onion
11/4 cup dry seasoned breadcrumbs
3 3 Tbsp barbecue sauce pinch salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 egg
1 tsp dried basil
1 1/2 oz brie cheese, diced
2 Tbsp chopped fresh parsley
Spray a large non-stick skillet with cooking oil, add the vegetable oil and place over medium heat. Add the onion and sauté for 5 minutes, just until soft. Reduce the heat to low, add the sugar and continue cooking for 10 minutes, until browned and caramelized. Set aside.
To make the burgers, combine the meat, green onion, breadcrumbs, barbecue sauce, garlic, salt, pepper, egg and basil in a large bowl. Mix thoroughly and shape into 5 burgers. Form a pocket in each burger and stuff evenly with the diced brie. Make sure the beef encloses the cheese completely.
Preheat a barbecue or indoor grill and spray with cooking oil. Cook the burgers for about 4 minutes per side, or until no longer pink in the center. Mound the onions on top of each serving and garnish with parsley.
