Sweet & Savory Bold Hawaiian BBQ Burgers Recipe [ + a Giveaway!]

This summer I'm embracing the cravings & my big ol' pregnancy belly and allowing myself to indulge in some of my favorite foods! While pizza and ice cream are all-the-time favorites, lately I've been craving a big juicy burger! Luckily, hubby and I have mastered the art of grilling up our own patties and the Hawaiian Burger recipe I'm sharing with you today is one I'll be wanting again and again all summer long!

I decided to deck these burgers out with delicious, freshly sliced pineapple and a Hawaiian BBQ sauce paired with Mezzetta Deli-Sliced Mild Pepper Rings & Feta Cheese stuffed inside the burgers and the end result is delicious! If you love a little bit of spice with a touch of delicious sweetness then you will definitely want to fix up this recipe the next time you grill out!

Hawaiian Burgers

1lb ground beef

1/2 tsp onion powder

1/4 tsp sea salt

1/2 tsp cracked black pepper

4+ tbsp feta cheese

Mezzetta deli-sliced pepper rings

1 pineapple, sliced thinly

Hawaiian BBQ sauce

Start by making half of the beef into 4 "edged, bowl-shaped" patties and the other half into 4 flat patties.

Add approximately 1 tbsp feta cheese into each "bowl" patty and 3 or more mezzetta deli-sliced pepper rings.

Place the flat patties on top of bowl patties and pinch to seal the sides and flatten together.

Season each side with salt, pepper, and onion powder mixture and place on grill, cooking until desired temperature.

Remove burgers from the grill, place on buns and top with pineapple slice and Hawaiian BBQ sauce. Garnish with additional Mezzetta Peppers if desired.

ENJOY!
