Amazing Taste seasoning packets have been all over the food blog world for a while now. For those of you who don't know, Amazing Taste packs claim to season and tenderize and mostly come in protein specific blends. Like beef, chicken, pork, etc. I got some samples a while back and recently tried out the one for burgers.
I didn't do anything fancy with them, just mixed a heaping half tablespoon of seasoning into a pound of beef. Then I fried them in a steel pan. A little cheese, some spinach, some mayo.
They were good. I liked how the seasoning wasn't overwhelming but complimented the meat. The packet proclaims it's a delicate blend of onion and garlic and I'd say that's about right. I didn't notice any particular tenderizing going on, but I cook my burgers well done. I would be a little nervous if a powder, used in such a small amount, made them tender. Final verdict: for 99 cents, you can't go wrong if you want a quickie seasoning for your burgers. The flavor is good and the price is right. I plan on using more of the different types and I will post about it as I do. I have a plan for the poultry one...

Geez a burg sounds so good right now, especially a perfectly seasoned one.
MMMMM, I've been craving burgers...and I just happen to have an AT burger seasoning pack left ;) These look mighty tasty- I think i'll use spinach on my next burger, good idea.
That burger look great...I want one for breakfast!!
We're grilling burgers today - wish I had some of this seasoning!
BTW - I received the herbs!! They came Thursday so I'm trying to decide which one I'll use first. I do have a hankering for some saucy beans/cassoulet-type dish . . .
can we get more pics of that burger man? LOL
Nice. I'll have to look out for this next time I'm in the States.
I'm never sure about seasoning burgers because I love all the add-ons. Worth a try, though.
I love me good burger!
The Quaker Oats man did a photobomb in your first pic LOL
Your pictures are great... they look brighter than before... are you doing something different?
