Homemade Gourmet Hamburgers - Yummiest Burgers You've Tasted?

A friend suggested that my next video should on making homemade burgers. I was going to grill them on my braai / Weber kettle barbeque but it was raining fairly hard when I was about to start. My family and friends know that I will cook outside in most weather conditions but my camera wouldn’t like getting wet so I cooked indoors instead.
I remember making hamburgers when we were growing up in South Africa so this experience reminded me of then. The beauty of making them at home is that people sharing the meal with you can custom build their burgers with their own favourite toppings.
This time, my gourmet burger had these toppings:
Extra-large buns
Extra strong cheddar cheese
Rocket and lettuce leaves
Coleslaw
Peri peri / chilli sauce
See how I made my peri peri chilli sauce: • How To Make Chilli Sau...
For the homemade hamburger patties I used:
• Minced beef
• Half chopped red onion
• Salt
• Pepper
• Mixed herbs
• Mustard seeds
• Cumin seeds
Give it a go and let me know how it went.
Enjoy!

Try giving culinary hints: why you doing this or that.
Solid home-level cooking. I would eat one if somebody made one for me - just to avoid the hustle. But generally speaking, set up a higher bar and try to get there. E.g., marinate the onions instead of frying it, or add pickles, or try frying bacon with a splash of water to get golden crust. Experiment with adding fats to the ground meat (lard, egg yolk, mayo?), chop meat instead of use ground one. Burgers are a huge topic to slowly discover. 😊
