1
Mix Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
2
Form Patties
Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

3
Preheat Grill or Pan
Heat a grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, add a little oil to prevent sticking.
4
Cook Patties
Place the patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side. Flip the patties and cook for another 4-5 minutes, or until they reach your desired doneness.

5
Prepare Vegetables
While the patties are cooking, wash and slice the tomato into thin rounds.
6
Assemble the Burgers
To assemble the burgers, place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each burger bun, followed by a cooked beef patty. Top with tomato slices and drizzle with special sauce. Place the top half of the bun on the burger.
7
Serve
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
