Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground beef
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/4 teaspoon paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 slices bacon
  • 4 hamburger buns
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup guacamole
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon chipotle in adobo sauce
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1/4 cup sliced jalapenos
  • Lettuce, tomato, and red onion for garnish

Directions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all the spices are evenly incorporated.
  3. Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties.
  4. Cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess grease.
  5. Place the burger patties on the preheated grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is reached. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of cheddar cheese and allow it to melt.
  6. While the patties are cooking, prepare the chipotle sauce. In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, chipotle in adobo sauce, and lime juice. Mix well.
  7. Toast the hamburger buns on the grill for a minute or until slightly charred.
  8. To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of chipotle sauce on the bottom bun. Place the patty on top, followed by bacon slices, guacamole, sliced jalapenos, lettuce, tomato, and red onion. Top with the remaining bun.
  9. Serve immediately and enjoy your Pompous Mexican Burgers!
