In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and gently shape them into patties, about 3/4-inch thick. Use your thumb to make a shallow indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.
Thinly slice the onion. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat, add the onion slices, and cook, stirring occasionally, for 12-15 minutes or until caramelized. Stir in butter during the last few minutes of cooking for added richness. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, ketchup, and Worcestershire sauce to create the bistro sauce. Set aside.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes per side for medium, or adjust based on your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheese on each patty and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.
Lightly toast the brioche buns on the grill or skillet for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
To assemble the burgers, spread a generous layer of bistro sauce on the bottom bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and a burger patty with melted cheese. Top with caramelized onions and pickle slices. Finish with the top bun.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or salad. Enjoy your bistro cheeseburgers!
