Homemade burger seasoning is just what you need to elevate your BBQ experience this summer.
No more under seasoned frozen burgers getting tossed onto the grill.
Oh no, we can do much better than that.

Making homemade burger seasoning takes no trouble at all and the results speak for themselves.
Juicy, flavorful beef that’s the first to go at any BBQ.
This isn’t just for beef burgers though. It can be used on lots of different things that we’ll talk about in a bit.

Spending just a little extra time making your own seasoning is not going to go unnoticed.
These are the most delicious burgers I have ever had. Every time I make these people go crazy for them.
The combination of seasoning and spices enhance the meat perfectly.
Keep in mind that this is also a really cute and appropriate gift to being to a BBQ, too!

Everyone could use some delicious homemade seasoning in their lives.
I know that if you try this homemade burger seasoning, you’ll love it just as much, too.
Don’t forget to try them with this delicious homemade Big Mac Sauce and my Crispy Oven Roasted Potatoes are a great side to these juicy burgers, too.
How to store homemade burger seasoning:
Place the seasoning mixture in an airtight container.
Place it in a cool dry place until you need to use it.

The seasoning will stay fresh for up to 3 months.
What else can I use this seasoning on?
This recipe isn’t just for beef burgers.
It works very well on turkey burgers, chicken, and even pork, too.

Honestly, if you like the flavor, put it on whatever you’d like. There are no rules.

Homemade Burger Seasoning Ingredients:

- Salt
- Pepper
- Garlic powder
- Dried basil
- Onion powder
- Mustard Powder/ ground mustard
Instructions:
First, add all of the ingredients to a small bowl.

Now, mix everything to combine it all.

Use about 1 tbs of the seasoning per 1.5 pounds of beef. Feel free to adjust that if you’d like more or less.

Mix the burgers and seasoning together but don’t over mix the meat. The burgers will become too tough like that. 

Form the beef into equal sized patties

Then place onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet.

Put them in the fridge to marinate for a couple of hours. The seasoning will really make its way into the beef that way.
When you’re ready to make the burgers, remove them from the fridge and sprinkle them with just a little more of the seasoning.

Now put the unused homemade seasoning in an air tight container to be stored.

Finally, grill or cook the burgers how you’d like them and enjoy!

I always end up having to buy a bottle of this or a bottle of that, just for a teaspoon of an ingredient that I will probably never use again. Which ends up with me having all these bottles haphazardly thrown into my pantry; coupled with my lack of organizational skills, that is not a pretty pantry let me tell you!!! So I am relegated too having to buy my seasonings/rubs but props to everyone who is able to make their own!!

I was going to try these today. Is one tablespoon of garlic powder correct?
Yes but you can use less if you want for sure
Very nice recipe. I like being able to decide how to cook them.
Tried this recipe last night for dinner and the burgers were so tasty!! Thanks for a great recipe! I will definitely be making them again in the future.
