Main Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef 80/20

Instructions
Cooking
- Combine the beef, 3 tablespoons of the teriyaki sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper and mix gently until just combined.
- Divide into four portions and shape into patties about 3/4 inch thick, slightly wider than the buns, with a shallow dent in the center.
- Preheat a grill or heavy skillet over medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates or pan.
- Cook the patties 4 to 5 minutes per side until 160 degrees F in the center, brushing with the remaining teriyaki sauce during the last minute.
- Toast the buns cut side down for about a minute until golden.
- Rest the burgers a few minutes, then assemble with lettuce, tomato, and red onion.
