Directions
To make aioli, combine mayonnaise, capers, chopped fire roasted red bell pepper and cracked black pepper to taste; mix well.
Heat the grill to medium-high. Place burgers on grill.
In large skillet, brown the chopped hickory smoked bacon until crisp.
Remove cooked bacon to paper towel to drain, reserving 1/2 of the bacon grease, discarding the rest.
Use the remaining bacon grease to sauté the sliced mushrooms for 3 to 4 minutes.
Add red wine and continue cooking until liquid in pan is reduced to near nothing. Place in serving bowl.
Butter both inside halves of the Kaiser Roll and place on the grill, butter side down, until toasted.
About 3 minutes before burgers are done, top each with a slice of provolone cheese.
To build burger, place sliced red onion on bottom half of roll. Add the burger, a scoop of the bacon infused sautéed mushrooms, and top with the homemade aioli. Cover with roll to top.
