Slice the yellow onion thinly and set aside.

Sprinkle the brown sugar over the onions, stir, and cook for 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are soft and caramelized. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, melt the remaining tablespoon of butter, then lightly toast the brioche buns cut-side down for about 1–2 minutes. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun and 1 tablespoon of honey mustard on the top half.
Layer the bottom bun with a slice of provolone cheese, 3 ounces of turkey slices, caramelized onions, fresh jalapeño slices, and arugula.
Sprinkle the turkey and vegetables with a pinch of salt and black pepper, to taste.
Top the sandwich with the upper half of the bun, pressing gently to secure all ingredients in place.
