Tips:

Use ground pork with a higher fat content. This will help keep the burgers moist and juicy.
Season the pork well. Cajun seasoning is a great option, but you can also use your favorite herbs and spices.
Don't overwork the meat. Overworking the meat will make the burgers tough.
Form the burgers gently. Don't press down on them too hard.
Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help prevent them from drying out.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the burgers are cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the burgers.
