In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the meat into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat the cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add the burger patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and browned. Remove the patties from the skillet and set aside on a plate.
In the same skillet, reduce the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, sprinkle in the flour and whisk continuously to create a roux, cooking for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Slowly pour in the beef broth while whisking to prevent lumps. Continue whisking and cook the mixture for 3-4 minutes, or until the gravy thickens.
Stir the cooked white rice into the gravy and mix well, ensuring the rice is evenly coated.
Return the burger patties to the skillet, nestling them into the rice gravy. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to warm everything through.
Serve the burgers topped with the rice gravy on plates. Garnish with parsley if desired.
