Instructions
- Roast the sweet potatoes: Preheat oven to 400°F. Toss sweet potatoes with olive oil ( 1½ tablespoons), salt (1 teaspoon), pepper (½ teaspoon), garlic powder (1 teaspoon), and smoked paprika (1 teaspoon). Spread in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast 20-25 minutes, tossing once halfway, until you have golden brown spots and soft centers.
- Make the burger sauce: Combine mayonnaise (¾ cup), ketchup (3 tablespoons), mustard (1½ tablespoons), chopped pickles (6 tablespoons), pickle juice (2 teaspoons), and garlic powder (¾ teaspoon). Stir to combine and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Cook the beef: Heat a skillet over medium-high heat. Add ground beef (1 pound) and season with salt (1 teaspoon), pepper (½ teaspoon), garlic powder (1 teaspoon), and onion powder (1 teaspoon). Let it sit without touching for 2-3 minutes to develop some color, then begin breaking it up as it finishes cooking. Once cooked through, add Worcestershire sauce (1 tablespoon) and mustard (1 teaspoon) and stir to combine.
- Assemble: Divide sweet potatoes and beef between bowls. Add toppings as desired. Drizzle with burger sauce.
