These delicious burgers with pineapple, teriyaki sauce, lettuce, tomato, onion, Swiss and mayo are my take on the Hawaiian Burger as served at the famous Islands restaurant. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do! Serve on your choice of white or whole wheat buns with sides of lightly steamed veggies (broccoli and carrots) or fresh cut fries, and you're doing the hula.
Ingredients:
2 lbs lean ground beef
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce (i use kikkoman terriyaki baste and glaze with honey and pineapple)
1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple rings, drained
2 -3 tablespoons additional teriyaki sauce
8 slices swiss cheese
8 slices tomatoes
8 slices red onions

mayonnaise

4. Shape beef mixture into 8 burgers, 4 inches round and 1/2-inch thick.

6. Grill burgers and pineapple uncovered 5 minutes; turn. Brush burgers with remaining terriyaki sauce; grill 5 minutes.
