Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80% lean)
- 0.5 cup Teriyaki sauce
- 1 tbsp Soy sauce
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Ginger (grated)
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 4 rings Sliced fresh pineapple
- 4 pieces Sliced red onion
- 4 tbsp Mayonnaise
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, 2 tablespoons of teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, grated ginger, salt, black pepper, and sesame oil. Mix gently to combine without overworking the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties about 3/4-inch thick.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Grill the burger patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness (160°F internal temperature for medium). Baste the patties with additional teriyaki sauce during the last 2 minutes of grilling.
While the patties are grilling, lightly toast the burger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
Grill the pineapple rings for 1-2 minutes per side until they develop light grill marks and caramelize slightly.
To assemble, spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Place a lettuce leaf on top, followed by a grilled patty, a grilled pineapple ring, and a slice of red onion.
Finish by topping with the other half of the toasted bun. Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes.
