I love hamburgers and pineapple, so it just seemed natural for me to combine them. My family frequently requests these unique burgers. It's a nice change of pace from the same old boring hamburger.—Joi McKim-Jones, Waikoloa, Hawaii

I have modified it once or twice. I used Onion buns rather than Sesame Seed and I used a Mesquite marinade and a Mango marinade. We love this burger.

What a clever combination! I made this just a few days ago and my fiance is already asking when I'll serve it again. We loved it.
