Hamburgers

I have so many hamburger patties in the freezer! Friday night I decided to have some friends over so I could at least make a dent in them and make room in the freezer. You might be wondering why I would put something as simple as burgers in my blog, but let me tell you...it's ALL about the seasoning. My mom became slightly obsessed with Emeril over the last year or so and found some great recipes including this burger seasoning. Occasionally I'll just sprinkle the patties with the seasoning, but last night I thawed and mixed everything together. Personally, I like it better that way. Also, I added some Worcestershire sauce to the mix just because I thought it seemed like a good idea. Anyway, I thought they turned out really well. Of course I added cheese and also toasted the buns a little. I just wish I would have had onion and tomato.

Emeril's Burger Seasoning
2 1/2 Tbsp paprika
2 Tbsp salt
2 Tbsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp onion powder
2 tsp black pepper
2 tsp ground mustard
1 tsp cayenne pepper

Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and stir to blend thoroughly. Store in an airtight container. Use 2 to 3 tsp per pound of ground beef (I bet I used more than that though).
