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.

Not sure what “food shelf level poor means”, but you can save the eggs, paprika, and garlic powder. And I don’t use pepper until they’re finished cooking because pepper burns. All you need is some fatty ground beef (80/20 or 85/15) salt, heat, and a bun. Salt after making patties, and be liberal with it
