Anyone got any ideas on how to make homemade beefburgers.

Thanks

Put beef in a bowl with diced onion and garlic and some peppers (you can also add mushrooms/half tin of kidney beans to your taste). Add splash of worcestershire sauce and mixed herbs. Add breadcrumbs (about 4 slices worth for normal packet beef) and a raw egg. Then get your hands in and mix it all together!! Very messy but best way to get it all mixed up. Shape into bruger shapes and bbq, fry, grill or oven cook for about 20 mins. Hope you like it - i experiment a lot with the protions of everything but make sure there are enough breadcrumbs to hold mixture together. Good luck!

I also add an oxo cube to the above.

My mother used to get the mincemeat, mix it up with an egg to bind it, a little crumbled bread, and some chopped onions, then fried, Delicious.

Exactly how my Mum used to make them Chessman except she crumbled an Oxo cube into them.I still make them like this.

Ditto to all the answers but with addition of a little mustard ( english) either powder or premixed.

I know this will sound bizarre but try it...warm about 2 tablespoons of milk and break bread into it until you have a slop. Mix with the mince before adding onions, herbs etc. It tenderises the meat in cooking and tastes like you have used finest steak. Works for all.mince receipes :0)

A bit of parmesan in the beef is nice too.

Mince with about 20% fat and a little salt and pepper, nothing else.. Mash it up fine and form into burgers.

Extra flavour from sauces, dips etc.
