Combine the beef and the next 7 ingredients (beef through crushed garlic) in a large bowl. Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping each portion into a thick patty. Place patties on grill rack or broiler pan; cook for 5-6 minutes on each side or until desired doneness. Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons aioli over top half of each bun.
