Ingredients

• 1 lb ground beef (80/20 blend)
• 4 pineapple rings
• 4 ham slices
• 4 burger buns
• 0.25 cup teriyaki sauce
• 0.25 cup mayonnaise
• 4 lettuce leaves
• 4 red onion slices
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your grill or a grill pan to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grates with vegetable oil.

Step 2

In a mixing bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Divide into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties, slightly larger than the buns.

Step 3

Place the patties on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Remove and set aside to rest.

Step 4

While the patties are cooking, grill the pineapple rings for 2 minutes per side until caramelized and lightly charred. Set aside.

Step 5

Lightly grill the ham slices for 1-2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

Step 6

Toast the burger buns cut side down on the grill for 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise with 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce to make a teriyaki-mayo spread.

Step 8

Assemble the burgers by spreading the teriyaki-mayo mixture on the bottom half of each bun. Layer with lettuce, a burger patty, a slice of grilled ham, a pineapple ring, and red onion slices. Drizzle additional teriyaki sauce on top, if desired, and close with the top bun.

Step 9

Serve the Hawaii Burgers immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as fries or a fresh salad.
