Monterey Jack BBQ Burger with Apple-Wood Smoked Bacon and Avocado

3 lbs. ground beef
1/2 cup barbecue sauce - I use Stew Leonard's
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
6 slices Monterey Jack cheese
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese
1/2 small red onion, halved and thinly sliced
1 ripe avocado, sliced thin
12 slices apple-wood smoked bacon, cooked crisp
Hamburger rolls
Ranch dressing, if desired

Preheat grill.
Combine ground beef, barbecue sauce, garlic, chili powder, salt, pepper and grated Monterey Jack cheese in a bowl. Shape into 6 patties about 1-inch thick.
Place burgers on grill and cook to desired doneness, at least 5 minutes per side for medium rare.
Place each burger on a roll. Top each with a slice of cheese, onion, bacon and avocado. Top with Ranch dressing, if desired.
