ingredients
-
Chipotle Mayonnaise
- 1⁄2 cup mayonnaise
- 1 chipotle chile in adobo, seeded and minced
- 2 teaspoons adobo sauce (from the canned chipotle in adobo above)
- 2 teaspoons fresh lime juice
- 1⁄4 teaspoon smoked paprika
-
Burger
- 4 slices bacon
- 1 1⁄2 lbs ground beef (lean 80%)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1⁄2 teaspoon chili powder
- 3⁄4 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 4 hamburger buns, split (or onion buns)
- 4 slices tomatoes
- 4 slices red onions, thin
- 1 Hass avocado (peeled pitted and cut into 16 slices)
directions
- Combine the mayonnaise, chipotle pepper, adobo sauce, lime juice, and paprika in a small bowl; set aside.
- 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; cook 4 minutes longer for medium-rare. In the last minute of cooking, cover the pan to help melt the cheese. Remove from the heat.
- 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.

I'm just me, mother, grandmother...friend to many and a Louisianian. My Cajun and French Quarter Italian descent afforded me exposure to some of the best of foods. My passions are my family, decorating, cooking and gardening. Those very passions push me into constant awareness with always looking for something new to delight the senses, thus my favorite idiom...Inspire me, puuuullllllleeeeeeease! ...and I mean it, too. God Bless America!
