Cook the ground beef in a skillet over medium heat. Season with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Cook until browned, then drain any excess grease and let it cool slightly.
In a small bowl, whisk together all the burger sauce ingredients until smooth.
In a large bowl, add the chopped lettuce, tomatoes, cheddar cheese, pickles, red onion, and bacon (if using).
Top the salad with the warm cooked beef.
Drizzle with the burger sauce or serve it on the side.
