These are the burgers my mother is famous for — my parents’ visiting day barbecues are the stuff of legend in my extended family. When I asked for exact ingredients, my mother told me that it’s actually my grandmother’s recipe (we call her Ima), and of course, she never measures.
Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
Mix all burger ingredients by hand until just combined.
Form into burgers and grill over medium-high heat for four to five minutes per side or until desired doneness.
Serve on buns with lettuce, tomato, red onion, avocado, and condiments of your choice.
Tips:
My mom makes these burgers for Pesach by grating one small potato per pound of meat in place of the bread crumbs. You can do that easily to make them gluten-free all year round.

delish!
My kids loved these. This is a easy basic burger and everyone enjoyed.
can I use a grill pan indoors?
I didn’t have Italian bread crumbs so I used corn flakes crumbs and added some Italian spices - rosemary, oregano, and basil. It came out delicious!
