Making burgers

[vxmatt]

I'm sick of buying burgers that are too small for the bun!

I want to make my own that aren't pathetically small. I'm not a chef, my skills amount to little more than opening a packet and following the instructions.

Can I just get some mince and smush it together into a burger or do I need to add something to it to hold it all together?

Should I add anything else to add flavour? I was thinking of chucking some jalapenos and some chopped onion in.

Thanks in advance

Thanks for all the info guys. I've had a couple of attempts now.

The first attempt was a bit of a fail as I grilled them for slightly too long. I kept it simple and made the burgers just out of meat, the onions, bacon, gherkins, jalapinos etc were all added after. They were very tasty.

The second attempt was EPIC! I grilled the burgers to perfection (again just plain burgers) once everything else was added it was truly amazing!!!
