Pineapple Bacon Burgers

Wednesday, July 30, 2008

"Seasoned hamburger and a slice of pineapple are slapped together, and wrapped in bacon. It's that easy, and adds a wonderful flavor to a regular burger! This recipe was one of my grandmother's favorites. We would make these special for her when she would come up to see us."

INGREDIENTS

  • 2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 1/2 cup prepared barbecue sauce
  • 1 (8 ounce) can sliced pineapple
  • 8 slices bacon
DIRECTIONS
  1. Prepare grill for indirect cooking.
  2. In a large bowl, mix together hamburger meat and barbecue sauce. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Shape mixture into 4 large patties. Place a slice of pineapple on top of each. Crisscross 2 bacon strips around each burger, and secure with toothpicks.
  4. Brush oil on grate. Place burgers on grill over medium low heat. Cook, covered, until the burger is cooked through. Turn often to avoid burning the bacon.
