Beef patties seasoned with smoked sweet paprika get topped with Rach's special sauce—a blend of ketchup, relish, sour cream and chipotle PLUS crunchy potato chips.

Note: For bacon burgers, bake off 8 meaty slices of smoky bacon, cut in half across, in oven on slotted pan at 400˚F until very crisp.
