This
burger has become so popular in our house we can’t make them enough. My husband said if he could only have one
kind of burger this would be it.
Normally
we like some kind of chip with burgers, but every time we’ve eaten this meal
neither of us have dipped into any crisps.
Perhaps it’s because we’re too busy grunting over the mouthwatering
taste to notice anything else on the table.
There
are three key “musts” in making this special slider. Always select name brand pineapple. Off brands really don’t pack the flavor punch
and will taste watery.
Second,
the bread or roll has to be great.
Regular rolls or bread take away from the overall experience. A seeded bread or roll adds that special crunch.
Lastly,
the pineapple and bread/roll have to be grilled! It really does make a difference in the taste
and in melting the cheese ever so gently.
My
Pineapple Bacon Cheese Burger is bursting with flavor in every bite. There’s
sweet, tangy, spicy and savory. Another
thing I love about these burgers is that they taste great cold the next day. Make a few extra (totally put them together
as if you were eating it then place in plastic wrap in the refrigerator) and you’ll see what I mean.
If
you want people to remember your cook-outs or barbecues, try making these for
your guests or on National Cheeseburger Day which is September 18th. Whether you’re a vegetarian
or not I hope it will become a Favored Cooking recipe in your home as well.

Let’s Make It
Make sure
your grill is hot. I didn’t use cooking
spray on mine and it worked fine.
1. Place the rolls or bread on the
grill. If you’re using a Foreman close it so both sides get that brown crisp
grill mark.
2. Remove rolls/bread from grill and
place it on a serving plate or dish.
3. Put the pineapple slices on the
grill. Close the Foreman. After the bottom of the pineapple is browned
flip it and do the same on the other side.
4. At the same time cook the burgers
on the grill or in the microwave. See cooking
note below.
5. Spread a generous amount of honey
mustard on the warm bread.
6. Layer with lettuce, bacon, burger,
pineapple and cheese.
7. Get ready to grunt in satisfaction
as you dig in to this big burger!
Cooking the meat:
Cook the vegetarian
bacon according to the package. Cook the
vegetarian burgers according to the package less 30 seconds because it will get
hard on the grill.
If you
are using meat, you can cook it on the grill or in the microwave oven. For microwave cooking, put burger in a paper bowl
with a paper towel over it to prevent splattering. Cook on high for one minute. Drain it then flip the burger. Finish cooking about 45 seconds to one minute
or until the pink is gone.
Notes: Sour
dough or rye bread are also good, but plain hamburger rolls or bread ... that "ain't" right!
Stick with a hearty bread if you can.
