Ingredients
- 2 lbs ground beef
- 1 lb cooked bacon, divided
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 small head purple cabbage, shredded
- 1 1/2 cups guacamole

- 1 cup mayonaise
- 1 jalapeno, seeded and minced

Method
Set aside 6 slices of cooked bacon to put on your burgers. Roughly chop the rest of the bacon and place in in a large mixing bowl. Add the beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder and onion powder and mix until ingredients are thoroughly combined.
Form 6 patties (roughly 5.5 oz each)
If you are grilling: Heat a gas grill to high. Brush the burgers with the oil. Grill the burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the first side, about 3 minutes. Flip over the burgers. Cook beef burgers until golden brown and slightly charred on the second side, 4 minutes for medium rare or until cooked to desired degree of doneness. Cook the burgers as for a grill, above. If you are using a grill pan: Heat a grill pan over high heat on top of the stove.
While the burgers are cooking, make the jalapeño aioli by adding all ingredients to a blender, food processor or a jar if using a immersion blender. Blend until smooth.
Build your burger! Place your burger patty on a large iceberg lettuce leaf, top it with shredded cabbage, guacamole, more bacon, drizzle it with aioli. Carefully wrap the lettuce around it, using a few more leaves as necessary.
