Garlic powder0.5 tsp

Method
Truck Sauce
1
Whisk the mayonnaise, sugar-free dill pickle relish, yellow mustard, and smoked paprika in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
Cheese Shells
2
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Place the shredded cheddar in two flat, circular mounds. Allow the cheese to melt completely, bubble, and form a lacy, golden-brown crust on the bottom. Carefully slide a spatula underneath, lift, and drape each warm cheese round over a thick wooden spoon handle or rolling pin to cool and firm up into taco shell shapes.
Burger Filling
3
Divide the ground beef into four small balls. Heat a cast-iron griddle over high heat until smoking. Place the beef balls on the griddle and smash them completely flat using a heavy spatula. Season immediately with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Sear for 2 minutes to develop a deep, dark crust. Flip and cook for 1 more minute, then roughly chop the patties on the griddle with your spatula.
