Ingredients

1 lb. ground beef (80/20 or 90/10 fat content)

2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

2 Tablespoons mayonnaise

1 teaspoon seasoned salt

1/2 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon ground pepper

4 hamburger buns

4 slices Swiss cheese (or other preferred cheese)

1/4 cup teriyaki sauce

4-8 pineapple rings (canned or fresh-cut)

lettuce leaves

sliced red onion

Directions

Preheat your gas grill to a medium-high heat, reaching about 400 degrees.

For the burger patties: In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire, mayonnaise, salt, chili powder and pepper. Mix well. Using your hands, press and pat four quarter pound patties, making sure to wash hands before and after handling the raw meat.

Reduce grill temperature to medium low. Grill the burgers for about 5 minutes per side for a medium doneness. Add the Swiss cheese, close the lid to the grill and let cheese melt for about 1 minute. Remove the burgers from the grill. When adding the burgers to the grill, you can also add the pineapple rings at the same time. Grill the pineapple for approximately 5 minutes per side to caramelize.

Remove the burgers and pineapple from the grill. Cover burgers with foil and let rest for a couple minutes to help the burgers retain their juices.

Add burgers to slices buns, and top with approximately 1-2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce. Optionally, you can also enjoy each burger with lettuce leaves, red onions, and/or sliced tomatoes. Enjoy!
