In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the ground beef until browned, breaking it into crumbles as it cooks.
Add the salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce to the beef. Stir well to evenly distribute the seasonings. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, then remove from heat and set aside.
Heat another large skillet or griddle over medium heat. Spread a light layer of butter on one side of each tortilla.
Place a tortilla, buttered side down, onto the skillet. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese on one half of the tortilla.
Add a layer of the cooked ground beef on top of the cheese, followed by a few slices of pickles (optional). Drizzle a small amount of ketchup and mustard over the beef and pickles.
Fold the tortilla in half, pressing gently to seal. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the bottom is golden brown and the cheese begins to melt.
Carefully flip the quesadilla and cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the second side is golden brown.
Remove the quesadilla from the skillet and transfer it to a cutting board. Let it cool for a minute, then cut into wedges.
Repeat with the remaining tortillas and fillings until all quesadillas are cooked.
Serve warm with additional ketchup, mustard, or your favorite dipping sauces on the side.
