Preheat your grill or stovetop griddle to medium-high heat.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined; do not overwork the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about ¾ inch thick. Use your thumb to press a shallow indentation in the center of each patty; this helps prevent puffing as they cook.
Lightly oil the grill or griddle with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
Place the patties on the grill or griddle. Cook for 3-4 minutes on one side, then flip them and cook for another 3-4 minutes for medium doneness. Adjust the time for your preferred level of doneness.
When the patties are almost done, add a slice of cheddar cheese to each and allow it to melt slightly, about 1 minute.
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or griddle for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers by spreading ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard on the bottom half of each bun.
Place a lettuce leaf on the sauced bun, followed by a cooked beef patty with melted cheese, a tomato slice, and two pickle slices.
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately with your favorite sides!
