1
Prepare the Beef
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
2
Form Patties
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 1 inch thick.
3
Cook the Patties
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
4
Add Cheese
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover the grill or skillet to help melt the cheese.
5
Serve
Remove the patties from the heat and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy your Big Fred Pounder with your choice of buns and toppings!
