1
Mix Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.
2
Form Patties
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty, about 1 inch thick.
3
Cook the Patties
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned. Flip and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).

4
Toast the Buns
While the patties are cooking, cut the burger buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.
5
Prepare Toppings
Wash the lettuce leaves and slice the tomato into thick rounds.
6
Assemble the Burger
Spread a generous amount of special sauce on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a lettuce leaf on top, followed by a beef patty, a slice of tomato, and then the top half of the bun.
