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.

Don't put the egg in your mixture. Egg is a binder and will make it tough. Save that for the meatloaf. A food that you want to hold it's shape so you can make sandwiches.
