@lemon{1%unit}
@ketchup{2%tbsp}
@mayonnaise{2%tbsp}
@sour cream{2%tbsp}
@dijon mustard{1%tsp}
@fry seasoning{1%tsp}
@ground beef{12%oz}
@coleslaw mix{4%oz}
@potato buns{2%unit}
@crispy fried onions{2%tbsp}
@sugar{1%tsp}
@cooking oil{1%tbsp}
@salt{½%tsp}
@black pepper{¼%tsp}

Wash and dry produce. Quarter @lemon{1%unit}. In a #small bowl{}, combine @ketchup{2%tbsp}, half the @mayonnaise{2%tbsp}, half the @sour cream{2%tbsp}, half the @dijon mustard{1%tsp}, ¼ tsp @sugar{1%tsp}, ¼ tsp @fry seasoning{1%tsp}, juice from one lemon wedge, ½ tsp @salt{½%tsp}, and @black pepper{¼%tsp}.

In a #medium bowl{}, gently combine @ground beef{12%oz}, remaining dijon mustard, remaining fry seasoning, a big pinch of salt, and pepper. Form beef into two equal-size balls. Heat a drizzle of @cooking oil{1%tbsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Once pan is hot, add beef; firmly flatten each ball with a lightly oiled spatula to create patties, each slightly wider than a burger bun. Cook until browned and cooked through ~{3%minutes} per side.

Meanwhile, in a second #medium bowl{}, combine @coleslaw mix{4%oz}, remaining mayonnaise, remaining sour cream, ¼ tsp sugar, juice from two lemon wedges, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Halve @potato buns{2%unit}; toast until golden.

Spread a thin layer of tangy mayo on bottom buns. Fill buns with patties, @crispy fried onions{2%tbsp}, and as much remaining tangy mayo as you like. Divide burgers and slaw between plates. Serve.
