Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until well combined, but do not overwork the meat.
Divide the ground beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.
Cut 4 large sheets of aluminum foil. Place one patty in the center of each foil sheet.
If desired, add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty for a cheesy burger twist.
Fold the aluminum foil over the patties, creating a sealed packet for each burger. This will trap in the juices and prevent any mess.
Place the foil packets on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until the burgers reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).
Carefully remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the foil packets rest for 2-3 minutes before opening.
Open the packets, transfer the burgers to the buns, and add your desired toppings and condiments.
Serve immediately and enjoy, with zero dishes to wash!
