Form the meat mixture into 4-6 uniform patties. Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, carefully place the patties into the skillet and brown them on both sides until a good sear is achieved (about 3-4 minutes per side). Do not cook through. Remove the browned patties from the skillet and set them aside on a plate.

If there is excessive grease in the skillet, carefully drain off all but about 1 tablespoon. Add the sliced onions and sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables begin to soften and release their moisture (about 5-7 minutes).
