# Steps to Follow:
01 - Mix ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until combined. Form into 4 equal patties slightly wider than bread slices.
02 - Heat cast iron skillet over medium heat. Melt 2 tablespoons butter, add sliced onions and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove onions and set aside.
03 - Increase heat to medium-high. Add beef patties to skillet, cooking 3 to 4 minutes per side until browned and cooked through. Remove patties and set aside.
04 - Clean skillet. Butter one side of each bread slice. Place 4 slices buttered side down in skillet. Layer each with Swiss cheese, a beef patty, caramelized onions, another slice of Swiss cheese, then top with remaining bread slices buttered side up.
05 - Cook over medium heat, pressing gently with a spatula, until bread is golden and cheese melts, approximately 3 minutes per side.
06 - Cut each sandwich in half and serve immediately.
