Basting the burgers in teriyaki made this! I had to add closer to 3/4 cup bread crumbs in order to keep the burgers held together. Definitely a nice change from traditional.

Although we usually use ground beef, these are my family's favorite burger recipe. The pineapple on top is wonderful!

I used egg beater and whole grain bread crumbs and it still turned out yummy. Definitely going to make again!
