In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, grated Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, Italian seasoning, salt, and black pepper.
Gently mix the ingredients with your hands until well combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into either a round burger patty or an elongated 'burgerdog' to fit a hot dog roll.
Heat a large skillet or grill over medium heat. Add the olive oil if cooking in a skillet.
Cook the patties or burgerdogs for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Cooking time may vary based on thickness.
Toast the buns or hot dog rolls lightly on the skillet or grill, if desired.
Assemble the burgers or burgerdogs with your preferred toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and condiments.
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries, salad, or grilled vegetables.
