Growing up, I watched my mother mix a large bowl of ground meat with spices and wondered why she just didn't buy the frozen burgers in the box like my friend’s parents do – but now I know why. Homemade hamburgers are yummy, plus you can customize the burger and add ingredients that suit your taste buds: parmesan cheese, soy sauce, tabasco and even thyme. Here is my simple recipe for homemade hamburgers – don’t be afraid to get creative.
1 package of lean ground beef
1 egg
½ cup of Italian bread crumbs
1 teaspoon of paprika
1 teaspoon of onion salt
1 teaspoon of black pepper
Salt
FYI: I NEVER measure in my kitchen when it comes to cooking (unless I’m baking). I use my sense of smell to tell me if the dish is spiced right.
Place the ground beef in a bowl and add the egg, bread crumbs and spices.
Mix well with your hands. Grab a handful of meat and sculpt into a patty (remember to make the patty larger than the hamburger bun, as the meat shrinks when it cooks).
Place on the BBQ at medium heat and cook until done.
Serve with French fries on the side. How easy is that?
