We like to think of this as the Big Daddy of burgers: it’s got everything to love on a burger all in one bite.
Make a double (or triple!) batch of the Chipotle mayo—it is great on grilled salmon, chicken and steak—or as dip for chips and veggies.

Directions
DIRECTIONS
Combine the mayonnaise, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, lime juice, and paprika in a small bowl.
Cook the bacon and set aside.
Make the burgers: combine the beef, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Gently mix to combine, taking care that you do not overwork the beef.
Form the mixture into four patties about 1/2 inch thick and press your thumb down in the center of each burger to form a depression. (This helps the burgers cook more evenly).
Heat a nonstick grill pan over medium heat until hot. Add the patties and cook 4 minutes.
Turn the burgers over and top each with a slice of cheese
Place roll bottoms onto each of 4 plates. Top each with a tomato slice, patty, onion slice, 4 slices avocado, and 1 bacon slice.
Spread the cut side of the top half of each roll with the mayonnaise and set atop the burger and serve.
