• For the burgers: Stir together the paprika, salt, pepper, thyme, cayenne, garlic powder and onion powder in a small bowl.
• Mold the meat into patties. Brush with oil and sprinkle both sides with salt. Sprinkle 1 side of each patty with the spice mixture, making sure to rub the spices into the meat, and then drizzle with oil before grilling.
• Preheat a griddle pan to medium heat.
• Add the canola to the pan just prior to cooking. Place the burgers on the pan and cook until slightly charred and the spices have formed a crust, about 1 1/2 minutes (be careful not to burn the spices). Flip the burger over, lower the heat to medium and continue cooking to desired doneness. Top each burger with 2 slices of cheese during the last 30 seconds of cooking, until the cheese is melted.
• Put the burgers on the buns, top with the ham, some of the onions, some of the mayonnaise sauce and some potato chips. Use a skewer to hold the burger together.
