Everybody has a different way to make the homemade patties. I'm cooking some tonight and would like to know everyone's style. So, what say you?

Baste with soy sauce a few times while grilling.

Get good quality beef, and fresh fixins.

The best advice I received on burgers years ago was to handle the meat as little as possible and put the dimple in the middle with your thumb so it doesn't shrink up as much. I usually use 80/20. Season to your liking but don't over handle it in the process. You can mix in a little ground pork if you like as well.

My roommate was grilling burgers one day and wanted to put a random type of cheese on them. Ever since that day I cook all my burgers with muenster cheese. shite is excellent on a burger. Complements the meat very well

PDub, for every 2 pounds of meat, add 1 pack of onion soup mix. Hit it with some black pepper and a lil salt, the dimple and that's all folks.

90/10 and tonys. Too many people screw up hamburgers by trying to add all kinds of stuff.

Muenster is a really good, creamy cheese. Can't go wrong with it. I usually go with pepperjack or sharp cheddar. Swiss when I want sautéed mushrooms on it.
I like to add worcestershire, salt/pepper, and some breadcrumbs before forming into the patties. Basically just season to your taste, but you gotta have 80/20.

When I was younger I used to do all sorts of things to burgers. I'd mix a lot of seasoning into the meat. I've even chopped up onions and peppers really fine roll them into the patties.
After I tried it the simplest way (cracked pepper and kosher salt, little dimple in the middle), I stuck with it.
There's really only two variations I'll do.
If I'm cooking the thinner patties, I'll cook on high heat.
If I'm doing thicker ones, I'll cook on medium heat, flip once. When I have nice crust on each side, I'll put on whatever cheese I want and add some water to the skillet, put a lid on it, and let the cheese melt over the burger.
I don't know why, but I don't always want cheese on my burger, and if I do, I want the patty to be thick.

80/20. Little salt. Dimple the middle. Cook.
I like hamburgers simple. Dress to taste.

The best burger is a thick one that's not cooked past medium.

I do this as well but add an egg

Usually use chuck with salt and pepper. Occasionally, I'll add a little dry ranch, if I have some on hand.

I've seen several posters stating the same, but what does it hurt to handle the meat "too much"?

It will make it tougher if it's over handled, according to what I've read.
I grab the portion I want from the hunk of ground beef. Season the top and fold it over itself. Form the patty and season the top of that. Put it in the skillet seasoned side down and season the top of that. (Now it's been seasoned in the middle and both sides.) That's all the handling I do.
