Grilled Pork and Pineapple Burgers

Set up and light a charcoal grill.

Cut the pineapple into 1-inch thick slices and remove the core.

Drizzle the pineapple slices with Japanese barbecue sauce and rub to coat.

Slice the red onion into rings.

Form the ground pork into two equal-sized patties.

Season the pork patties on both sides with salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.

For extra smoked flavor, add wood chips to the hot coals.

Place a cast iron skillet on the grill. Add the sliced onions and a drizzle of Japanese barbecue sauce. Cook for about 5 minutes over direct heat until softened.

Grill the pork patties over direct heat until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F.

Grill the pineapple slices until caramelized on both sides.

Toast the burger buns on the grill.

Assemble the burgers: on the bottom bun, place a pork patty, a grilled pineapple slice, the cooked red onions, a drizzle of Japanese barbecue sauce, and sriracha mayo. Top with the other half of the bun.
