Ingredients
  

  • 2 pounds ground beef 85/15 or 80/20 mix
  • 2 tbsp Teriyaki Sauce
  • 1/2 cup finely minced onion
  • 1 tbsp beef bouillon powdered or the Better than bouillon brand
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 ounces pineapple slices drained, and laid out on paper towel
  • 6 whole hamburger buns

toppings:lettuce, grilled or raw onion slices, condiments, Wasabi Mayo (recipe to follow), smoked provolone cheese slices

wasabi mayo

  • 1/3 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tbsp wasabi paste
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce

Instructions
 

  • Combine hamburger meat with teriyaki sauce, minced onion, beef bouillon and salt and pepper to taste. Go light on the salt because bouillon can be salty.
  • Divide meat up into 6 equal balls and press them into hamburger patties. Place pineapple slice on top of each patty and press it into the meat.
  • Toast hamburger buns under the broiler. Or place them on the grill for a minute to get them toasted. You can also butter the buns and toast them on a grilled pan if you like.
  • Slice thick slices of sweet onion, brush with olive oil, and lightly season with salt and pepper.
  • Grill burgers to your liking. Grill onion slices along side burgers. I generally grill burgers 4-5 minutes on a side. To be safe you can check with a instant read thermometer they should be 160℉ in the middle.
  • Just before removing burgers from grill add cheese if you are using cheese.
  • Assemble burgers to your liking.

wasabi mayo

  • Whisk mayonnaise, wasabi paste, honey, and soy sauce together in a small dish. Set aside to be used as a condiment for burgers.
