What's your go to burger seasoning (1 Viewer)

About to make some burgers for dinner, was gonna go with my typical salt, pepper, oregano, paprika, and cayenne for the meat, and top it with some avocado mayo and spicy ketchup (equal parts sri racha and heinz). Always looking to improve on an already good thing, so what are your go to seasonings in your burger mix?

 
Usually some Grill Mates Pub Burger seasoning or Montreal steak seasoning - Has a pretty good mix of seasonings

Salt or Garlic Salt - Love garlic salt

Pepper

Worcestershire Sauce - Not too much...just enough to season the meat

Splash of Penzeys Forward! Spice - This stuff just made it into my burgers...it's interesting

Mustard seed or Mustard - Trust me on this...put some mustard directly in the patty...more if you like mustard like I do...

 
Homemade chili paste on top bun, dijon mustard (NOT Grey Poupon) on the bottom bun, ketchup on the patty, essentially glue for the veg...

Went the salt pepper fresh garlic route last night, good stuff. Definitely going to try some of the seasonings you guys have posted, and definitely the mustard, lots of good ideas.

 
a perfectly cooked burger doesn't need much seasoning beyond salt, pepper and maybe one or two other ingredients-- onion/onion powder, garlic powder,etc.

My mom used to make burger patties like this:

-meat

-bread crumbs

-diced onions

-worcestershire sauce

-one egg

-diced green peppers

Becomes a point where you cease making a burger and start making a meatloaf.

Green peppers? McDonald's don't have green peppers...

 
montreal, fresh coarse ground black pepper, worcestershire,

occasionally mix in chopped red onions and/or mushrooms

This is pretty much exactly what I use, except subbing Onion/Garlic Powder for Oregano and using Sea Salt and Crushed Black Pepper instead of normal "Salt and Pepper"

I usually use a seasoned old school panini press on the grill to really get the juices flowing as well.

Also 15 min. before I grill I use a smoker box w/ mesquite to get a hint of smoke on the burgers as well.

What's the secret sauce?

- Thousand Island dressing. What's the secret sauce at Bronco Burger?

Ketchup and mayonnaise.

Word. Trying to taste the beef, not disguise it. I also use an egg for every two pounds or so. Helps hold the burger together a bit better.

Put it on the grill. One quarter turn for good grill marks. Flip and finish. Don't over handle that thing. You should be able to tell if its done with a simple press of the finger.

I see some people handle a burger on the grill like a hockey puck on a power play. And then they slice a gash in it and peek in to tell if its finished. Horrifying.
