There is no flippin way that second patty turned out that way just because somebody mixed some salt into it. They had to massage the shite out of it. That said, I just season the outside. On a griddle I like course salt smash burgers. On a grill I’ll usually do Tony’s with some garlic powder. I’ll do Montreal steak season sometimes. Ill like to dowse them with a few shots of Lea and Perrins before the cheese.

Neat article but I don’t believe it. I’ve eaten many a seasoned prior to forming patty as that’s how my dad has done it since the beginning of time. Never have I seen one transform itself into filet mignon

I used some Benoit’s seasoning ,dry powder Ranch dressing, mixed in an egg or 2 formed my patties and smoked them on my Pit Boss. Came out great!

Do you smear bbq sauce on them too as they cook

S.P.G. after forming patties.

No I didn’t this past time but a little Pig Stand BBQ sauce on them does taste good

I wonder how long he let that burger sit too.
I would imagine if you season, mix, form, grill in a relatively quick timeframe it would not have the same effect as if it were done and refrigerated for a period of time.

salt, pepper, and a packet of the smokey ranchero seasoning.

Usually just salt on pepper after the patty is formed.
I do like the Weber's Hamburger Magic spice blend every now and then.

For grilling burgers, I have been doing this lately Steakhouse Burger Recipe. It makes the best grilled burgers I have ever made. I do less ketchup and more garlic than it calls for. Previously I only ever formed patty and seasoned outside with tony's and s&p. The recipe is great for thicker patties - i wouldn't try with a smashed burger on griddle.

Just salt and pepper typically, I have been using some Lane's Ancho Expresso on them lately.
I've done it both ways, season the outside or season it, then make the patties. I'm not that particular and typically I will kind of break open the one pound "tubes" of burger, season it, then make the patties.
A tougher decision is whether to put them on the grill or in a cast iron skillet on the stove.

That recipe calls for 85% beef--problem #1. 80% ground chuck and it only needs salt and pepper when on the heat.
Her recipe is meatloaf. Love that flavor, but it's not a burger. When I have a burger, I want to taste a burger.

I did a messy burger last week. Here's how it went down. Two pounds of ground beef, one egg, two tablespoons of Montreal seasoning that was ground to a fine powder, & 1/4 cup of A1. I made thin 3oz burger patties. I also cooked bacon, caramelized onions with Dry Sherri, & made a cheese sauce with Irish stout cheddar. To assemble, a little A1 & mayo went on the bottom bun, then two slices of bacon, two burger patties, a healthy dollop of caramelized onions, & finally the cheese sauce. Unfortunately the wife lady bought the cheap burger buns otherwise it was damn fine!
Occasionally I do BBQ burgers. Like with most of my cooking, all volume measurements are approximations.
#2 80/20 ground beef
1 egg
1/2 cup bbq sauce
2T salt
1t black pepper
I blend everything except the beef together in a bowl & then gently fold it into the ground beef. I scale 3oz patties & flatten them to about 1/4" thickness between two layers of plastic wrap. These get grilled on a rocket-hot grill for about 2-3 minutes per side. The outside gets a nice crust & the inside remains medium to medium well. I don't mind this doneness for burgers because it's mince & not a steak. I usually finish these with LTOP & American cheese.
I prefer thin patties because they provide more surface area and a better ratio of crusty seared meaty exterior to juicy interior.

I hear you. I also use 80/20 when i make it. It tastes absolutely nothing like meat loaf fwiw. I make a lot of meat loaf
I've had burgers people make with egg and bread crumbs. This technique doesn't really come out the same way. Ends up being a really juicy burger with plenty of "burger" taste.

I guess I am the contrarian here but I never get less than great results with grilled burgers and I always mix in Worcheshire sauce, Tony's, salt, pepper and garlic powder and then form the patties. I do form the patties immediately before grilling, so maybe that is why.

I grind my own meat when I do burgers. I form them into about 1/2" - 3/4" patties and do the thumb print in the middle. Then I sprinkle salt / pepper.
I always seem to have trouble with getting the meat to stick together...it's like the patties want to fall apart when I get them on the grill. They taste great, but what am I doing wrong?

I form the patties and dust with seasoning the night before. It comes out great. Really not sure what I'm doing, but I wouldn't say it has a sausage like texture at all. Maybe it's because I'm not mixing the salt in.
The foodie consensus seems to be season right before cooking. But I pretty much dry brine any meat that I'm cooking and everything comes out juicy and flavorful.

Big and Bold steak and burger seasoning, just on the outside. I get it at Maxwells.
