HAWAIIAN BURGER

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
• Mix the mayonnaise and 1/4 cup of the teriyaki cooking sauce in a small bowl until combined. Slice four 1/4-inch-thick rounds from the pineapple (reserve the remaining pineapple for another use). Form the beef into 4 patties and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
• Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat, alternatively prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high direct and indirect heat. Add the bacon and pineapple in a single layer in a grill pan; if using an outdoor grill place the pineapple over direct heat and the bacon over indirect heat and cover. Cook until golden on one side, about 5 minutes for the pineapple and 7 minutes for the bacon. Flip both with tongs and continue cooking until the bacon is crisp and the pineapple is golden and soft, about 6 minutes more for each. Transfer to a baking sheet along with the rolls and keep warm in the oven.
• Add the burgers to the grill pan or outdoor grill over direct heat and cook until well browned on one side, about 4 minutes. Flip the burgers and cook for 2 minutes. Brush the burgers with half the remaining teriyaki cooking sauce, top with the mozzarella and brush with more sauce. Cover the burgers with a heatproof metal bowl or grill lid and cook until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to desired doneness, 1 to 2 minutes for medium.
• Put a burger on the bottom half of each roll and top with 2 slices bacon and 1 pineapple round. Divide the teriyaki mayonnaise among the burgers, spooning it into the hole of each pineapple round. Top with the roll tops.

HAWAIIAN BURGERS

Steps:

• For the sauce: Stir together the mayo, teriyaki sauce, honey and cayenne in a small bowl. Set aside.
• For the burgers: Set a grill pan over medium-high heat (you can also use a skillet).
• Grill the pineapple and bell pepper rings until they have great grill marks on both sides (or brown them in the hot skillet), about 5 minutes.
• Season the ground beef and form it into 4 equal-size patties. Cook them over medium heat on the grill for 4 to 5 minutes on the first side, then flip them over and add a splash of teriyaki sauce on top of each one. Place a slice of cheese on each patty and let it melt while the burger cooks through, about 4 minutes longer.
• Butter a griddle or separate skillet set over medium heat. Place the rolls cut-side down and cook until brown, about a minute.
• Spoon a little bit of the sauce on both sides of the rolls and allow it to soak into the bread. Place the patties on the bottom buns and top each with 2 pineapple slices and some red onion slices, bell pepper rings and lettuce. Top with the top buns and smush it all together. Serve with extra sauce for dipping.

THE ANGRY HAWAIIAN BURGER

Steps:

• Make the angry Hawaiian sauce: Combine pickled jalapenos, pineapple and barbecue sauce in a bowl.
• Place bacon in large pot and cover with water. Boil until most of the fat is rendered, about 45 minutes. Drain bacon. Preheat a grill or pan, then form bacon into 4 patties and sear until crispy.
• Divide beef into 4 patties. Sprinkle beef patties with seasoned salt and cook over medium-high heat until desired doneness.
• Meanwhile, toast buns to desired doneness.
• Place one tomato slice on each bun bottom, then top with one portion shredded lettuce. Top beef patties and bacon patties with slices of provolone, then top each cheesed beef patty with a cheesed bacon patty.
• Top patties with angry Hawaiian sauce and bun tops, then finish by closing with bun bottoms.
