- A teaspoon of spice for every pound of meat is a good starting point; simply adjust it to your spice preference.
- Store your homemade burger seasoning in airtight spice jars or other suitable containers, in a cool and dry place for up to 3 months. I recommend making the spice mix in small batches which one can easily use up, as opposed to one big batch to ensure the burger seasoning still keeps fresh.
