Place a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Cook the beef, breaking it up with a spatula, until browned and cooked through, about 7-8 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
While the beef cooks, whisk together the Greek yogurt, yellow mustard, pickle juice, and smoked paprika in a small bowl to create the special sauce.
Finely shred the romaine lettuce and dice the dill pickles and red onion.
Assemble the bowl by placing the shredded romaine at the base.
Top the lettuce with the cooked ground beef, diced pickles, red onion, and shredded cheddar cheese.
Drizzle the prepared special sauce over the top and garnish with toasted sesame seeds before serving.
