Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until the seasonings are evenly distributed.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions. Roll each portion into a long, cylinder shape resembling a hot dog and ensure it is tightly packed to hold its shape during grilling.
Place the burger dogs onto the preheated grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Turn them carefully with tongs to avoid breaking their shape.
If using cheese, lay a slice on top of each burger dog during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
Toast the hot dog buns on the grill for about 1 minute to add a light crispness, if desired.
Assemble your Burger Dogs by placing each grilled burger dog into a toasted bun. Top with your choice of condiments like ketchup, mustard, chopped onions, pickle slices, and lettuce leaves.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides such as fries, coleslaw, or a fresh salad. Enjoy!
