In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and eggs. If using, add breadcrumbs. Mix well.

Sprinkle half of the sautéed onions over the beef.
If desired, add half of the sliced pickles, shredded lettuce, and diced tomatoes.
Arrange half of the cheddar cheese slices evenly over the âburgerâ layer.
Spread half of the ketchup-mustard-mayonnaise-relish mixture evenly over the cheese.
Top with half of the pizza sauce or marinara sauce.
Sprinkle half of the mozzarella cheese over the pizza sauce.
Arrange half of the pepperoni slices on top.
