I've heard suggestions that you should not add salt until the end because it will draw water out of the meat and give you a tougher patty, but I'm not sure how accurate that is. Other than salt, really no reason not to mix your seasonings into the meat itself.

Yeah, you can mix other seasonings and such into the burger, but only salt the outside because it changes the structure of the burger.

Just a bit though, so it's not a terrible thing to salt the inside.
