Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 slices of bacon
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 slices of cheddar cheese
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 1/2 red onion, sliced

Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
- In a large bowl, mix the ground beef with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties.
- Place the patties on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness. During the last 2 minutes of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty and let it melt.
- While the patties are cooking, place the bacon slices on the grill and cook until crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.
- In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard to make the sauce.
- To assemble the burgers, spread the mayonnaise mixture on the bottom half of each hamburger bun. Place a lettuce leaf on top of the sauce, followed by a tomato slice, a cooked patty with melted cheese, 2 slices of bacon, avocado slices, and red onion slices. Top with the other half of the hamburger bun.
- Serve the jumbo bacon avocado burgers immediately and enjoy!
