In a medium bowl, combine red onion, cilantro, chicken stock, pineapple juice, cumin, hot sauce and salt and pepper. Cut corn off of cob and toss with mixture. Transfer mixture to a sheet of foil and wrap to keep warm.
4. Brush grill pan with 1 tablespoon additional oil. Place the patties on the pan and cook, turning once, until done to preference, 5 to 7 minutes on each side for medium. Remove burgers from pan and place on platter.
5. On each flour tortilla, layer burger, queso fresco and an equal amount of corn topping. Fold in sides of tortilla and roll like a burrito, securing with toothpicks. Brush grill again with oil. Place each tortilla wrapped burger on grill and grill until tortilla is golden brown and crispy.
