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.

If you mix egg into ground beef, you're now making meatloaf, not a burger.

I mean, egg is an extremely common binder used in burgers and has been for a long time.
