Method

Prepare the Aioli

  1. 1

    Make Chipotle Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, chipotle peppers, and lime juice. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Set aside.

Cook the Bacon

  1. 2

    Cook Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the applewood smoked bacon until crispy, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and place on a paper towel to drain excess fat.

Prepare the Burger Patty

  1. 3

    Season and Shape Patty

    In a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently and shape into two equal patties.

  2. 4

    Cook Burger Patty

    In the same skillet used for bacon, increase heat to medium-high. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. Add a slice of aged cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 5

    Build the Burger

    On the bottom half of the gluten-free bun, spread a generous amount of chipotle aioli. Place the cooked burger patty with melted cheddar on top, followed by crispy bacon, lettuce, and sliced tomato. Finish with the top half of the bun.
