Steps:
- For the patty melts: Preheat a grill or indoor grill pan to medium-high heat. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a cooling rack.
- Lay the bacon on a baking sheet and cook until crispy, 20 to 25 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate. Reserve the bacon fat.
- Sprinkle the beef with salt and pepper and divide into 4 equal balls. Shape the balls into flat 5-inch square patties and place on a platter or sheet pan. Make a dimple in the center of each so they cook evenly. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- For the pimiento cheese: Pulse together the pepper jack cheese, pimientos, mayonnaise and jalapeños in a food processor. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Set aside at room temperature, or if making ahead, take out 30 minutes before using. The mixture should be easily spreadable.
- For the patty melts: Have a clean baking sheet or platter ready for all the finished grilled components. Pat the pineapple dry and add to the grill; cook until lightly charred, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Remove the pineapple and add the patties. Cook until the patties are browned and have grill marks, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Add the patties to the baking sheet.
- To assemble the sandwiches: Mix the butter with 1 to 2 tablespoons reserved bacon fat in a small bowl. Spread one side of all the bread with the butter. Spread 3 tablespoons of the pimiento cheese on the other side of the bread. Place the bread on the grill, butter-side down. Add 2 slices bacon directly to four of the bread slices on the pimiento cheese. Top with a patty and a slice of pineapple, then top with the other toasted slice of bread, butter-side up.
- Serve warm.
