Tomatoes are so juicy and wonderful inside a sandwich, what about reversing that magic and putting them outside the sandwich? This recipe does just that. Topped with grilled onions and the sandwich goes to off-the-hook flavor levels. I find these are absolutely charming as smaller “sliders.” Use small tomatoes and small burgers for a big reaction from your friends and family.
