how do you season your burgers?

last night i searched for a unique burger recipe and found one that looked a little different. I was hesitant since it was so different but i tried it for sihts and giggles. long story short... it was terrible. i think it was the first time i've ever thrown a burger in the garbage. anyway... how do you season yours?
fyi, the ones i did... had Worcestershire, course ground pepper, italian season, garlic, and cilantro. no idea what made me try this...

but i've also done some crazy things to my hamburger meat... like ground up doritos, or cheeze-its, or bread crumbs, hell even wheat thins.
what it boils down to, is that we have ultimate chopper and i like grind stuff into powder.

i love those ingredients, but not in a burger.
i use worcest, an egg, some sort of cajun seasoning, finely diced onion, bbq sauce.

i agree. I normally go that route. (black pepper, salt, and maybe some tony's... and if i'm not feeling too lazy i'll add an egg and bread crumbs.)

Homemade burgers are one of my favorites. I keep it simple by just adding salt, pepper, and garlic powder to the ground meat.
I do like to play with toppings, though. I've been on a green chili with monterey jack cheese kick lately. Guacamole is good. Caramelized onions are my favorite topping.
Keep the burger simple. Experiment with toppings.

Worcesteshire, Uncle Leon's (or any of the La. all-purpose blends), or sometimes I'll use blackening or Greek seasoning. I'll add a little liquid smoke if it's going on the Foreman.

Usually just salt and pepper, maybe a little worchester or some Tony's.
For those who add stuff like breadcrumbs/eggs, what is the benefit of this? Wouldn't it just like a grilled meatloaf patty?

ground tenderloin, ground pepper, ground salt, minimal working with hands and rub with olive oil. That's it.

- couple sticks of pre-cooked bacon
- roasted red peppers from a jar
- cover with a slice of cheddarjack cheese to hold everything in
- serve on a french style hamburger bun (crunchy) with a little mayo
YUM!!

I put in worcestershire, some tony's or s and p, bread crumbs or oatmeal, and an egg

IMHO, its better to keep it to salt and pepper, because a burger is one of the few items its perfectly acceptable to put ANYTHING on.
There is no reason to do anything special to a good burger when your accepted toppings can be anything from garlic puree to pineapple to every kind of cheese to every kind of sauce to every homemade or store bought condiment or salad item you can think of.

Unlike everyone else on the thread I usually go with more instead of less. The egg is for bonding and I like the crumbs for absorbing the taste of whatever else I put in there, which is usually different. Lately I have been trying something different off the food network website for burgers and they've all been good. If you wanna get real creative take a look at this one. I did this a few weeks ago. Very good. LINK

FWIW, eggs and breadcrumbs are for people that don't know WTF they're doing with a hamburger. Not busting YOUR balls, just saying.
As for that link. That's entirely too much shite to call that a burger. That's a damn indigestion patty.

I can make a damn good burger with pretty much nothing, I just like trying new stuff.

That recipie calls for ground chicken. Where do you guys find ground chicken at around Baton Rouge? I've tried several places to no avail.
