re: how do you season your burgers?

Get your butcher to grind up some ribeyes and make your burgers out of that.

Salt and pepper... once in a blue moom I'll chop up some onion and mix it into the meat before I cook it.

I will sometimes add Montreal Steak seasoning and for slight sweet kick, will sprinkle in a little Orange Peel.

I add Garlic Powder, Earl's seasoning, Onions(finely chopped and sauteed, then cooled to put back in the meat), A little Worch, Salt, a beaten egg, A little bit of bread crumbs(don't want to much bc it will absorb all the flavor) I add in salt and then ICE COLD water(keeps burgers moist). Got to be Ice Cold. After I have press my burgers, I crack black pepper on the outside to give it a nice crust.

Nice meatloaf recipe.

Martini is probably hungover, but his Martini burger tops all.

Just an update... took some ideas from this thread and gave it another shot. note: Mrs. Cobrew always buys the leanest meat she can find which usually makes dry and nasty burgers. I went to Calandros and picked up 1.5 lbs of ground sirloin this time.

- course ground pepper
- kosher salt
- little bit of Cavenders
- 1/2 teaspoon of minced garlic
- teaspoon of Worcestershire.

The Mrs. said it was one of the best burgers she's had. She is less than half my size and she ate 2! Of course the meat makes a huge difference. Thanks for the ideas. I am bookmarking this thread cause now I want to a lot of the things mentioned.
