Meet the Cook: These burgers were a favorite when I was growing up. I now use them as a way to fancy up a barbecue without a lot of extra preparation. They keep me out of a hot kitchen yet let me serve a nice meal. Fresh fruit and corn on the cob are wonderful accompaniments. As the oldest of six children, I began cooking when I was very young. But I really started enjoying cooking 2 years ago when I married a very appreciative husband. He inspires me! -Sheryl Creech, Lancaster, California Ingredients:
1/2 cup honey |
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon |
1/4 teaspoon paprika |
1/4 teaspoon curry powder |
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger |
1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg |
2 pounds ground beef |
1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce |
1 can (20 ounces) sliced pineapple, drained |
8 hamburger buns, split and toasted |
lettuce leaves, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first six ingredients. Crumble beef over mixture and mix well. Shape into eight 3/4-in.-thick patties.
2. Grill, uncovered, over medium-hot heat for 3 minutes on each side. Brush with soy sauce. Continue grilling for 4-6 minutes or until juices run clear, basting and turning several times.
3. During the last 4 minutes, grill the pineapple slices until browned, turning once. Serve burgers and pineapple on buns with lettuce if desired. Yield: 8 servings.
