Method
 

  1. In a bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  2. Divide the meat mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties.
  3. Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat.
  4. Place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4–5 minutes on each side for medium doneness.
  5. During the last minute of cooking, place the buns cut-side down on the grill or skillet to toast.
  6. If desired, add a slice of cheese on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking.
  7. Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the buns and adding your favorite toppings.
  8. Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.

Notes

Let the patties rest a few minutes before serving to keep them juicy.
