Burger's are pretty easy to make, as well as being fairly cheap to make.
Now, this is a highly modular recipe, and is meant to more so act as a base to build off rather than a strict structure.
For instance, you could caramelize some onions and chuck them on the burger, use some different sauces, add some jalapenos, maybe use two burgers instead of one, the list is only limited by your imagination. Personally, I'd add some crisped bacon onto the burger for just a bit of extra crunch and flavor.
Aside from that, this is a very simple recipe once you get the hang of it, and is very open to experimentation. In fact, I would insist that you experiment with this particular recipe. In fact, this recipe is so modular, if you really wanted to, you could change the mince, go half and half with some other mince, but if you do decide to do that, keep in mind that it will cook slightly different to how this recipe cooks, so be sure to vary the times.
