Divide your ground chuck into 4 equal portions, then divide each of those in half. Pat each portion into a patty about ¼ -inch thick. In the center of 4 of the patties, place equal amounts of the cooked bacon and the queso fresco. Place the remaining patties on top and press them together and seal up the edges. Season both sides of each patty with seasoned salt. Place the burgers on the grill and cook 5-7 minutes on each side or until burgers are cooked all the way through. While you are waiting on the burgers, mix together the avocado and pico de gallo. Season with a little salt and ½ lime.
To assemble the burgers, place a patty on a bottom bun, top with guacamole and sliced tomato, jalapenos, and top with top bun. Serve and enjoy!
