Ok, I experimented with round one, and now I think I have a much better game plan, thanks to some lovely suggestions by you friends and family!! I ended up sauteing onions, butter, olive oil until soft, then finished it off with syrup. VERY good, especially the smokiness of the onions. It was too sweet, though, and I need it to be much less.
This time, I will keep the crumbles of cheese IN the patty (they were delicious!) but also make a cheddar-maple cheese sauce that will go over the burger. To top it off, I am making a Macintosh-Cabbage slaw (with a DAB of horseradish) and buttered/grilled Kaiser roles. The maple will also go into the slaw, as will cider vinegar to give it some tang.
I will let you know more after dinner tomorrow!! Keep the suggestions coming! The more the merrier!!!

Ooh, the slaw sounds yummy! You'll have to come up with a veggie burger version mmm ;)
KATE! No worries my cuz, I have been thinking of you and have a good idea!!! :-) Will let you know how the beefy version goes first!!! Hope all is well1 I LOVE your input and positive notes!!!
maybe a splash of acid (ie cider vinegar) when you're sauteing onions w/the maple syrup would cut down on the sweetness?
Missing you on the Truffle
