1 pound ground beef

1 teaspoon fresh oregano, diced
1 teaspoon cumin
Hamburger buns

Instructions
Gently mix meats, garlic, onion and spices until just combined, being careful to not overwork the meat as this will make your burgers tough.

Remove burgers from heat and allow to rest for a few minutes.
