Ingredients
  

  • 2/3 lb of beef
  • 2 tsp orange juice
  • 1 tbsp Jamaican Jerk Seasoning
  • 1 tsp balsamic vinegar
  • 1 tsp soy sauce
  • 1 clove fresh garlic minced

For the toppings:

  • 2 pineapple slices
  • 2 to mato slices
  • Lettuce
  • 2 slices of your favorite cheese
  • Grilled onions optional
  • Grilled Pineapple & Avocado Dip

Instructions
 

  • Using your hands, mix the ground beef with the seasoning, orange juice, vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic. Be sure to wash your hands thoroughly after touching the seasoning; if you rub your eyes with any residue of habanero, you will be grilling blindly. Chill mix until ready to cook.
  • Form two hamburger patties and place on grill (or cook on a grill pan over the stove). Grill both sides, making sure not to press down on the patties. We want to keep all that flavor inside.
  • When the burgers are halfway done, place two slices of pineapple on the grill and cook until partly browned. In the last minute, melt the cheese on top of the burgers, and toast the hamburger buns until slightly crunchy.
