Thinly slice the yellow onion into half-moons.
Heat the olive oil in a small non-stick skillet over medium-low heat, add the onions, and cook for 15 minutes until softened and golden brown, adding a tablespoon of water if they begin to stick.
While the onions caramelize, divide the ground beef into two 3-ounce portions and shape them into thin patties, seasoning both sides with sea salt and black pepper.
In a separate large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon slices until crispy, then remove and drain on a paper towel.
Carefully wipe out most of the bacon grease from the large skillet, leaving just a thin coating, and increase heat to medium-high.
Place the beef patties in the hot skillet and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side until fully cooked through.
During the last minute of cooking, tear the cheddar cheese slice in half and place one half on each patty, covering the pan briefly to melt the cheese.
Lay the butter lettuce leaves flat on a plate to serve as the base, then stack the first patty, the bacon slices, the second patty, the caramelized onions, the tomato slice, and the sugar-free ketchup.
