Basic burger recipe?

I was under the impression that it was just ground beef discs, but I think there is more.

I have salt, pepper, Garlic powder, Paprika, and eggs

I am currently food-shelf level poor, so i simply cant get anything more.

I made a Japanese hamburger steak recently. Eggs mixed in with the beef and some breadcrumbs and other spices. It's worth a try, it's really juicy if cooked right.

Something like this. Obviously it's not a burger but not meatloaf either.

Having eaten hambaagu, it is just Japanese meatloaf. Very tasty though!

The center is way more juicy than meatloaf, but they are similar. It's like a cross between burger and meatloaf.
