Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F.
- Mix the mayonnaise and 1/4 cup of the teriyaki cooking sauce in a small bowl until combined. Slice four 1/4-inch-thick rounds from the pineapple (reserve the remaining pineapple for another use). Form the beef into 4 patties and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat, alternatively prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high direct and indirect heat. Add the bacon and pineapple in a single layer in a grill pan; if using an outdoor grill place the pineapple over direct heat and the bacon over indirect heat and cover. Cook until golden on one side, about 5 minutes for the pineapple and 7 minutes for the bacon. Flip both with tongs and continue cooking until the bacon is crisp and the pineapple is golden and soft, about 6 minutes more for each. Transfer to a baking sheet along with the rolls and keep warm in the oven.
- Add the burgers to the grill pan or outdoor grill over direct heat and cook until well browned on one side, about 4 minutes. Flip the burgers and cook for 2 minutes. Brush the burgers with half the remaining teriyaki cooking sauce, top with the mozzarella and brush with more sauce. Cover the burgers with a heatproof metal bowl or grill lid and cook until the cheese is melted and the burger is cooked to desired doneness, 1 to 2 minutes for medium.
- Put a burger on the bottom half of each roll and top with 2 slices bacon and 1 pineapple round. Divide the teriyaki mayonnaise among the burgers, spooning it into the hole of each pineapple round. Top with the roll tops.

- 3. Next shape the beef mixture into 4 patties. Heat canola oil in a pan on medium high. Sear patties for 2 minutes each side until they develop a nice crust. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook for an additional 3 minutes per side. Top each patty with a slice of mozzarella cheese and melt.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ground beef. Opt for 80% lean ground beef for a juicy and flavorful burger.
- Season the ground beef well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika to create a flavorful burger.
- Form the ground beef into patties. Make sure the patties are uniform in size and thickness so they cook evenly.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help prevent the burgers from drying out.
- Use a meat thermometer to ensure the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness. The internal temperature should reach 160°F for medium-rare, 165°F for medium, or 170°F for well-done.
- Top the burgers with your favorite toppings. Some popular options include cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato, and onion.
- Serve the burgers immediately. Burgers are best enjoyed hot off the grill.
