HAWAIIAN HAMBURGERS WITH GRILLED PINEAPPLE

Hawaiian Hamburgers With Grilled Pineapple image

Plan ahead the shaped uncooked burger patties need to marinate for a minimum of 6 hours to blend the flavors before grilling. If possible use fresh pineapple rings for this about 1/2-inch thick or a little larger. If you prefer a little kick then add in a small amount of cayenne pepper --- You can also use half ground pork and beef --- you will LOVE these burgers!

This has oriental flavoring and a pineapple slice, moist and juicy and the flavors are addictive. Now I use turkey burger. Enjoy!

In large mixing bowl, add egg, (oil if using turkey burger only) brown sugar, ginger, soy sauce, 1 tblsp pineapple juice. Mix well. Set aside.
For dressing:.
In small bowl mix mayonnaise, celery seed, pineapple juice, ketchup.Taste. You may add a little more Ketchup by tsp if you prefer. Refrigerate.
Add ground meat to egg, brown sugar and spice mixture. Mix well. I use my fingers.
Form into 8 patties.
Put on the grill and cook about 6 minutes, then flip until done.
You may grill the pineapple rings on the grill for about 2 minutes.
Brush margarine on each side of buns.
Put on the grill the last two or three minutes to toast.
To Serve: Place one slice cheese on bun, then cooked pattie, add a spoonful of sauce on top, then romaine lettuce leaf, then one pineapple ring, top with other half of bun.
Serve with Taro chips, Hawaiian potato chips, pastachio nuts, and fresh coconut slices if you have. Dip the coconut slices in a mixture of vanilla and evaporated milk and Splenda before serving.
Note: I have not used fresh pineapple because there is intense natural acid. Some of the family cannot tolerate. You could substitute fresh pineapple, make sure you use some of the natural juice.

HAWAIIAN HAMBURGERS

Hawaiian Hamburgers image

I was skeptical at first about a hamburger without a bun...but these burgers need no bun! There is so much sweet goodness going on, they can stand all by themselves. Even my 2 and 4 yr old (who wouldn't eat a regular hamburger to save their lives) absolutely love these.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 1/2 lb ground beef
2/3 c evaporated milk
1/2 c diced onion
2/3 c saltine cracker crumbs
1 tsp salt
FOR SAUCE
1/2 c light brown sugar
20 oz can of pineapple chunks
2 Tbsp corn starch
1/4 c vinegar
2 Tbsp soy sauce

Steps:

1. For hamburger patties: combine the ground beef, onion, cracker crumbs, and salt. Form into 6 patties.
2. Brown the patties in a small amount of oil in a large skillet.
3. While hamburgers are browning, drain the pineapple juice from the can into a sauce pan. Reserve the pineapple chunks for later. Add the corn starch, vinegar, brown sugar, and soy sauce to the sauce pan. Cook, stirring until sauce thickens and bubbles, about 5 minutes.
4. Once the hamburgers are browned on both sides, add the thickened sauce to the pan along with the reserved pineapple chunks. Cover pan and simmer for 15 minutes until hamburger patties are cooked through. Serve with sauce and pineapple chunks drizzled over the tops of the patties.
