Add all ingredients to a small bowl or plate.
1½ teaspoons Salt, ½ teaspoon Black pepper, 1 Tablespoon Paprika, 1 teaspoon Onion powder, 2 teaspoons Garlic powder
Mix until well combined.
Sprinkle ½ teaspoon of the seasoning mix on each side of prepared burger patties, then cook and enjoy!

- Make sure not to over-season the burgers! Just a sprinkle of ½ teaspoon per side is plenty, and you can even use less. You want to enhance the flavor, not mask it.

- Add the seasoning right before cooking the burgers. This will ensure that the salt doesn't sit on the meat too long and start drying it out.

- When baking or broiling burgers, add the seasoning to the meat mix. A baked burger cooks differently than a grilled or pan-fried one and the seasoning will do best mixed right into the meat.

- Experiment with flavors! Try adding a dash of cayenne for heat, or swap the paprika for smoked paprika. There are so many delicious options to try!
- Make a big batch and store the seasoning in your favorite spice jar. This shelf-stable spice blend lasts forever, and is great on chicken, vegetables, turkey, and more!
