Be careful not to overcook the patties, as they can quickly become dry. Also, make sure to handle raw meat with clean hands and sanitize any surfaces or utensils that come into contact with it.

1

Make the teriyaki sauce

In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 tablespoons mirin, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon minced garlic, and 1 teaspoon grated ginger. Set aside.

2

Prepare the burger patties

In a mixing bowl, combine 1 pound ground beef, 1/4 cup bread crumbs, 1 beaten egg, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce (prepared in step 1), and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix until well combined, but avoid overmixing as it can make the patties tough.

3

Shape and cook the patties

Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties, about 1/2 inch thick. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.

4

Assemble the teriyaki burgers

Brush the remaining teriyaki sauce onto the cooked patties. Toast the burger buns and place a patty on each bun. Top with sliced pineapple, caramelized onions, and a drizzle of mayonnaise mixed with a splash of teriyaki sauce. Add lettuce and tomato for extra freshness and crunch.
