A delightful twist on a classic burger, featuring tropical flavors and a creamy sauce.
Combine the ground beef and turkey in a large mixing bowl.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the patties tough.
Add the egg, brown sugar, ground ginger, and soy sauce to the meat mixture and mix until combined.
Ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Form the mixture into 8 equal patties.
Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and cook the patties for about 6 minutes per side or until fully cooked.
Avoid pressing down on the patties while grilling to retain their juices.
Mix the mayonnaise, celery seed, and ketchup in a small bowl to create the sauce.
Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning to your preference.
Grill the pineapple slices for about 2 minutes per side.
Grilling enhances the sweetness of the pineapple.
Toast the burger buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes.
Brush the buns with a little butter for extra flavor.
Assemble the burgers by layering the bun, cheese, patty, sauce, lettuce, pineapple, and the top bun.
Serve immediately for the best taste and texture.
