I used an <a href=\"http:\/\/find.myrecipes.com\/recipes\/recipefinder.dyn?action=displayRecipe&#038;recipe_id=10000000449123\">extremely simple recipe in my Southern Living Cookbook<\/a>. The only alterations that I used were: <\/p>\n<p>1. I used ground turkey instead of ground beef.<br \/>2. I used canned\/store-bought Italian breadcrumbs instead of homemade bread crumbs.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll admit, I&#8217;ve never used Greek seasoning before, and I had to go to the store to buy some to make these hamburgers! But, they were excellent! I pan-fried them, but we&#8217;ll probably make them again this summer to fry on the grill!<\/p>\n<p>Basic Burgers<\/p>\n<p>Ingredients<br \/>1  pound  ground chuck (I used ground turkey.)<br \/>1  large egg, beaten<br \/>1\/4  cup  soft breadcrumbs (homemade) (I used store-bought Italian breadcrumbs.)<br \/>1  tablespoon  grated onion<br \/>1\/2  teaspoon  all-purpose Greek seasoning <br \/>1\/4  teaspoon  salt (I used sea salt)<br \/>1\/4  teaspoon  pepper<br \/>2  teaspoons  Worcestershire sauce<br \/>4  hamburger buns<br \/>Preparation<br \/>Combine first 8 ingredients, blending well. Shape into 4 patties. Grill, uncovered, over medium coals (300\u00b0 to 350\u00b0) 15 minutes or until done, turning once. Serve on buns.<\/p>\n<p>For broiling: Place patties on broiler pan; broil 3 inches from heat about 10 minutes or until done, turing once.<\/p>\n<p>For panfrying: Heat a heavy skillet until hot. Add patties, and cook over medium heat about 8 minutes or until done, turning once.<\/p>\n<p>I served the burgers on toasted hamburger buns. I slapped some mayonnaise and ketchup on the burgers and topped with lettuce and tomato. Add a slice of American cheese if you wish. We had sea-salt potato chips with our burgers.<\/p>\n<p><em><strong><a href=\"http:\/\/ceceliadowdy.com\">~Cecelia Dowdy~<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I made the best hamburgers the other day!
