Pineapple & Cheddar Stuffed Cheeseburgers

I first stumbled across this recipe a few years ago and my first thought was "Well that's interesting...." But we were amazed when I made it that we liked it so much. I have since made some minor tweaks to it and it has become one of our favorite burgers! It makes some HUGE burgers...but they are oh so good!

Pineapple & Cheddar Stuffed Cheeseburgers

Ingredients:
1lb ground beef
1 small onion, chopped (or half of a medium onion)
2 tbsp ketchup
2 tbsp bbq sauce
1 can of crushed pineapple
shredded cheddar cheese
grill seasoning
salt & pepper
cheddar slices (optional)

In a large bowl combine ground beef, chopped onion, ketchup, bbq sauce, grill seasoning and salt & pepper. Form six patties...as large as possible without being too thin.

Drain crushed pineapple and mix with shredded cheddar. Take one of the burger patties, top it with the pineapple & cheese mixture and top it with another patty. Press ends of the patties together to form one larger burger.

Grill until desired doneness...topping with additional slice of cheese if necessary & serve on a bun with traditional burger toppings.

You can also use blue cheese for this instead of cheddar.
