Instructions

• In a large skillet over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the diced onions and toss to coat. Sprinkle with pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and golden brown, 15 to 20 minutes. 
• Remove from heat and set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350F. 
• In a large bowl, combine the ground meat, pork rinds (the Pampered Chef Chopper is amazing to create quick pork rind crumbs, Epicure French onion seasoning, pepper. Stir in the egg and half of the caramelized onions, then use your hands to thoroughly combine. 
• Transfer into a silicone baking or a loaf pan. Bake 40 to 50 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 160F.
