Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80/20 lean-to-fat ratio)
- 0.5 cup Teriyaki sauce
- 4 pieces Pineapple rings (fresh or canned)
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 4 pieces Sesame seed burger buns
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 cup Shredded lettuce
- 4 slices Tomato slices
- 4 pieces Red onion slices
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
Directions
Step 1
Divide the ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape each into a burger patty about 1/2-inch thick. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
Step 2
Place the patties in a shallow dish and pour the teriyaki sauce over them. Marinate for 15 minutes, turning halfway through.
Step 3
While the patties marinate, prepare the pineapple rings by patting them dry if using canned. Set aside.
Step 4
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat and brush the surface with vegetable oil.
Step 5
Remove the patties from the marinade and grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
Step 6
Grill the pineapple rings for 1-2 minutes per side, until lightly charred and caramelized.
Step 7
Toast the sesame seed burger buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Step 8
Spread a layer of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.
Step 9
Assemble the burgers by layering shredded lettuce, a teriyaki-glazed beef patty with melted cheddar, a grilled pineapple ring, a tomato slice, and red onion on top of the bun base. Cover with the top half of the bun.
Step 10
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as french fries or onion rings.
