Put the sliced onions in the same pan and cook them until they turn caramelized. On the other hand, put butter on one side of each piece of bread. A small bowl with mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, and Worcestershire sauce should be used to mix them. Spread the mayonnaise mix on the side of 4 bread slices that hasn't been buttered. Put a cooked patty, caramelized onions, and a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each slice. Place the rest of the bread slices on top, buttered side facing down. Put the sandwiches back in the pan and cook for about two to three minutes on each side, until the bread is golden brown and the cheese melts. Make diagonal cuts in the sandwiches and serve them hot.
