1
Mix the Patty Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix gently with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
2
Form the Patties
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.

3
Preheat the Grill or Skillet
Preheat your grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add a little oil to prevent sticking.
4
Cook the Patties
Place the patties on the grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side until browned. Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cook for another 3-4 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) and the cheese is melted.

5
Prepare the Buns
While the burgers are cooking, slice the brioche buns in half. You can lightly toast them on the grill or in a toaster if desired.
6
Add Toppings
On the bottom half of each bun, layer a handful of lettuce, followed by a slice of tomato and some onion. Place the cooked patty with melted cheddar on top, and then cover with the top half of the bun.
