Plan ahead the shaped uncooked burger patties need to marinate for a minimum of 6 hours to blend the flavors before grilling. If possible use fresh pineapple rings for this about 1/2-inch thick or a little larger. If you prefer a little kick then add in a small amount of cayenne pepper --- You can also use half ground pork and beef --- you will LOVE these burgers!

Tips:
- Use ripe pineapples for the best flavor. If your pineapple is not ripe, you can hasten the ripening process by placing it in a paper bag with an apple or banana.
- For a smoky flavor, grill the pineapple slices over medium-high heat until they are slightly charred.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the pineapple slices in a grill pan or on a baking sheet in the oven.
- Be sure to season the pineapple slices with salt and pepper before grilling. This will help to enhance their flavor.
- When cooking the burgers, be careful not to overcook them. Hamburgers are best when they are cooked to medium-rare or medium.
- Serve the burgers immediately on toasted buns with your favorite toppings. Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese.
