I have some premade hamburger patties that we bought a while back. Im picky about food. The label said use or freeze by June 17th. They have been in the freezer since we have got them. Are they still good to make or should I throw it out? If its still good then what kind of seasonings can I put on the burger to make it taste better? ( we will be grilling )

If you had them frozen since the date on the package, they will be just fine. Look at the texture. Have they got freezer burn, or have they turned brown? If not, go ahead and throw those suckers on the grill. Make sure they are cooked all the way through and enjoy your cookout. As far as the seasonings, simple season salt and pepper will make them taste groovy. Save me a hotdog and a beer. Peace!

They should still be good if they've been in the freezer all this time. As far as seasoning goes, take 1 tablespoon Lawry's seasoning salt, and a 1/2 tablespoon of pepper and garlic salt, and then add a pinch of cayun pepper for that BAM! Mix them all together and that should be good for 4-6 burgers. If you mix it correctly, that stuff'll make you forget about ketchup and mustard.

Make sure they're thawed before cooking them.
To improve the flavour of the patties, sprinkle them with some black pepper, garlic and thyme, drizzle some olive oil on them before grilling them. Serving them up with onions or maybe even sweet peppers will also improve the taste.
I hope you'll enjoy them.

They are fine, just be sure to cook them the day you thaw them. You can season a burger with just about anything you happen to like. We are on the East Coast. A lot of places like to season everything including burgers with Old Bay.

Yea, if they have been in the freezer they should be fine. Actually, I like to season my burgers after cooking with Mrs. Dash seasoning.

If they have been in the freezer, they are no problem. Still good!! Crazy Jane's salt is always good on hamburgers.

as long as the meat is still a nice, red color they should be fine. if the meat lightened they just might not be as tasty unless if you season them well. but if the meat is tan or grey they are freezer burned and you might as well thrown them out.

They are fine. I always keep food much longer if it is in the freezer. I use Lawrys seasoning salt on mine and they are delicious.

they should be fine..thaw them in the fridge or microwave...use some montreal streak seasoning..or you can use seasoned salt and a little bit of worcestershire sauce to give it some flavor.
