Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Place frozen hash browns into a baking dish and bake for 25 minutes.

In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, pickle relish, dijon mustard, white vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to make the sauce; refrigerate while preparing the rest.

In a skillet, add 1.5 pounds of ground beef and diced onion; cook for 6-7 minutes until fully cooked and no pink remains.

Use a paper towel to soak up excess fat from the beef.

Add a couple of teaspoons of Worcestershire sauce to the beef and cook for an additional minute.

Stir in 2/3 cup of the prepared sauce and shredded KBY Jack cheese into the beef mixture off the heat.

Spread the beef mixture over the baked hash browns in the baking dish.

Top with the remaining shredded cheese and sprinkle sesame seeds on top.

Return the dish to the oven and bake for 10 minutes until everything is warm and gooey.

Remove from the oven and drizzle the remaining sauce on top; add lettuce, tomatoes, and chopped dill pickles as toppings.
