Creating Teriyaki Burgers is not only simple but also enjoyable. Follow these steps to achieve perfect results:

1. Prepare the Marinade: In a mixing bowl, combine the teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, ginger powder, and black pepper.
2. Mix the Beef: Add the ground beef to the marinade and gently mix using your hands until all ingredients are fully combined.
3. Form Patties: Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each.
4. Preheat Grill or Skillet: Heat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, lightly grease it with cooking oil.
5. Cook the Patties: Place the patties onto the hot grill or skillet. Cook for about 4-6 minutes on each side, depending on your desired level of doneness.
6. Add Cheese (Optional): If you’re using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover to melt.
7. Toast the Buns: While the burgers are cooking, place the hamburger buns on the grill or skillet to toast lightly.
8. Rest the Patties: Once cooked, let the patties rest for a few minutes to retain their juices.
9. Assemble the Burgers: Spread mayo or extra teriyaki sauce on the bottom bun, add the patty, and then layer your preferred toppings.
10. Top It Off: Finally, place the top bun over the toppings and serve warm.

Now you’ve created delicious Teriyaki Burgers that are sure to impress!
