BEST Burger Seasoning Recipe [+tips] | Masala Herb (2024)

Burger Seasoning is another amazing useful blend of spices, herbs, and salt!

Besides, preparing burger seasoning from scratch is super easy.

It will turn your burgers into the best burgers at the next BBQ grill hangout this summer!

📜 Why make your own Burger Seasoning?

The ingredients to make burger seasoning are common pantry spices.

This is a smaller batch, which should be enough for a bigger batch of burgers too.

You can easily scale the burger recipe that way.

Back in the day, homemade burgers were way more common than nowadays.

The moment I see perfect soft burger bunsat the grocery store, I will buy a few and prepare burgers at home!

I am a huge burger fan and of course, I like it with well-flavored beef mince burger meat and the ultimate sauce.

My favorite sauce is the Magic Sauce aka Big Mac Sauce.

I am not going to lie.

The big mac is my addiction besides the double cheeseburger.

Nothing beats preparing your own perfect copycat burger at home with a gorgeous good burger seasoning to flavor the best quality of beef mince.

💡 Tips to make the BEST Burger

You are going to rejoice because there is actually nothing easier than preparing your own burgers from scratch!

You just need the right ingredients, seasoning and of course, you should be able to tell when the meat burger has cooked to perfection.

A burger needs to remain juicy after having been cooked and should be flavorful as well!

The following simple quick tips to make burger patties will be useful

Use quality meat

A grade meat if possible.

For juicy burgers, you will need a certain fat amount in your burger, so lean meat results in dry burgers.

I think the best burgers turn out when you mix beef and pork mince together.

These burger patties tend to be more flavors and remain juicy easily!

Using the right seasoning

Roasting your own spices on a dry pan to release the aroma of each spice and then grinding them, results in more intense and qualitative higher spice seasoning for your burger.

My secret burger ingredient, besides the burger seasoning, is a mixture ofTamarind Paste andTamari Soy Sauce (thicker Soy sauce variation).

It adds another flavor dimension to the burger which will make it irresistible!

(More wet flavor seasoning ideas further below)

Once you add the seasoning to the burger meat and you mix it, keep the burger meat to marinate for a few hours.

Cover the bowl with a clean wrap and keep in the cold in the fridge.

That way the flavors will have time to come to life and your burger meat will take in the flavors with open arms!

➕ Additional wet flavor seasoning ideas

To my dried burger seasoning (as seen in the recipe further below) I also add wet seasoning ingredients.

Over the years I tried various flavoring combinations and additions of wet ingredients.

These days I usually always stick to my above-mentioned secret burger seasoning, Tamari soy sauce, and tamarind paste.

Yet, you can try adding the following ingredients to your burger meat.

That way you can build your own perfect burger and nobody will stop you! Instead of my secret burger sauce try adding:

• Regular dark Soy Sauce
• Teriyaki Sauce
• HP Sauce
• Worcestershire Sauce
• BBQ Sauce
• Vinegar
• Hoisin Sauce
• Chili Sauce
• dash of Whiskey
• Egg (Keeps the Burger together) Used to be my go-to addition when I started out but nowadays I don't like the egg taste in my burger.

🔪 How to make the best burger seasoning?
