In a large bowl, combine ground buffalo meat, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently but thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.

Form the Patties
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick. Press a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

Cook the Burgers
In the same skillet, add the buffalo patties. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or until they reach your desired doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
