Directions

Preparing the Animal Style Fries

1. Start by washing the russet potatoes thoroughly and cut them into thin fries.

2. Heat up the canola oil in a deep fryer or large pot to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).

3. Fry the potatoes until golden brown, around 5 to 7 minutes, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Do this in batches if necessary.

4. Remove the fries with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Add salt to taste.

5. Meanwhile, in a small pan, sauté the finely chopped onions in a tablespoon of oil on medium heat until they turn caramelized and brown. This should take around 15 minutes.

6. Arrange the fried potatoes on a baking tray, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese and caramelized onions on top and broil in the oven until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes at 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).

Preparing the In-N-Out Secret Spread

1. Combine the mayonnaise, ketchup, sweet pickle relish, distilled white vinegar, and granulated sugar in a mixing bowl.

2. Stir until all the ingredients are thoroughly blended.

Preparing the Animal Style Burger

1. Preheat your grill or stovetop griddle on medium-high heat.

2. Cook the fresh burger patties for about 3 minutes on each side for medium or adjust the time to your preferred level of doneness.

3. Just before the patties are done, place a slice of American cheese on each and allow it to melt slightly.

4. Toast the hamburger buns on the grill or griddle.

5. Spread a generous amount of the secret sauce on the inside of the bun. Then layer with pickle slices, lettuce, and sliced tomatoes.

6. Place the cooked patties on the buns. Add more spread on top along with caramelized onions and serve with your fresh Animal Style Fries.
