Foodpusher's Asian Inspired Burgers

These Burgers can be prepaired on an in-door grill, but they taste best when BBQed with charcoal outdoors.
1/4 lb. good ground beef
1/4 c Teriyaki sauce (Use the thick kind, the thin stuff causes the burgers to break too easily.)
1/4 c onion, minced
4 slices swiss cheese
4 large Hawiian buns(Onion buns are good, too.)
3 cups thinly sliced Chinese cabbage
1 sm. can crushed pineapple
1/2 c mayonaise
1 grated carrot
2t. ginger powder
salt and pepper
1t. garlic, mined
  Combine cabbage, pineapple, mayonaise, carrot, ginger, garlic, salt and pepper in large bowl, and stir just until cabbage is covered. Refirdgerate 'till later.
  Mix burger,Teriyaki sauce,onion, salt and pepper in bowl. Then form into 4 burgers.  Grill burgers to disired doneness and top with swiss cheese and let cheese melt.  Butter the buns ahaid of time so you can throw them on the grill at the end to toast.  Then top with the Asian Slaw.  I like to enjoy my Burgers with a cold Asian Beer.  Yum!!!
