Hawaiian Burgers

What you need:

For the special sauce:

    • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
    • 2 Tbsp. teriyaki sauce
    • 1 Tbsp. honey
    • 1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper

For the burgers:

    • Pineapple rings (fresh or canned)
    • 1 large red bell pepper, seeded and sliced into rings
    • 1 1/2 lbs. 80/20 ground beef
    • Salt and pepper
    • Teriyaki sauce
    • 4 slices provolone cheese
    • 2 Tbsp. butter
    • 4 onion rolls
    • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
    • Lettuce (if desired)

Directions:

    1. Mix the sauce ingredients together and set aside.
    2. Grill pineapple and bell peppers --or-- brown them in a hot skillet.
    3. Form ground beef into 4 patties and salt and pepper to taste.
    4. Cook on the grill --or-- in a cast iron skillet (or regular skillet) flipping only one time.
    5. After flipping, add a bit of teriyaki sauce on each patty. Then place a piece of Provolone cheese on each so it can melt while the burger finishes cooking.
    6. Toast onion rolls in the butter over medium heat.
    7. Slather a little of the prepared sauce on the top and bottom of each set of buns.
    8. Place patties on bottom buns, top with two slices of pineapple, then some red onion, bell pepper, and lettuce. Place the top bun on the very top and serve!
