Method
Burger Patty

Prepare the Patty
In a large bowl, combine the natural Angus beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.

Form the Patties
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a patty, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help it cook evenly.

Melt the Cheese
In the last minute of cooking the patties, place a slice of gouda cheese on each patty and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.

Toast the Buns
While the cheese is melting, slice the brioche buns in half and toast them on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
