Peel and cut sweet potatoes into fries, toss with olive oil, paprika, salt, and pepper, and spread on the baking sheet. Bake the sweet potato fries for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they're crispy. Meanwhile, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy, then remove and set aside. In a bowl, mix the ground beef with garlic powder, salt, and pepper, then form into two patties. Cook the patties in the same skillet with bacon drippings over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, until desired doneness. Toast the burger buns in the skillet for about 1 minute for added flavor. Assemble the burgers by placing lettuce on the bottom bun, followed by the beef patty, bacon, and the top bun. Serve the burgers hot with a side of sweet potato fries. Get recipes made for you on the Simmer app. Download for iOS Download for Android
