In a large bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well blended.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape each into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick.
Preheat a grill or stove-top skillet over medium-high heat.
Place the burger patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until they reach the desired doneness.
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each burger patty during the last minute of cooking and allow it to melt.
Remove the burger patties from the heat and let them rest for a minute.
To assemble the burgers, take large romaine lettuce leaves and layer with tomato slices, burger patty, and sliced pickles.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on each burger and add a 1/2 tablespoon of mustard, if desired.
Fold the lettuce around the burger to create a wrap and serve immediately.
