In a medium bowl, combine ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix gently without overworking the meat.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Form beef into 2 patties and cook for 3–4 minutes per side or until fully cooked (160°F internal temperature). Set aside to rest.

Prepare your bowl base: layer lettuce, tomatoes, avocado, onion, cheese, and pickles into two serving bowls.

Slice or crumble the cooked burger patties and place them on top of the bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk together burger sauce ingredients until well combined.

Drizzle sauce over each bowl or serve it on the side. Garnish with sesame seeds.
