Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Arrange pork patties in a single layer on parchment-lined, rimmed sheet pan. Brush top sides only with 1/4 cup teriyaki marinade. Place pan in fridge for 20 minutes.
- Heat a nonstick grill pan over medium heat. Please pork patties, teriyaki side-down, in hot grill pan. Brush remaining 1/4 cup teriyaki marinade over top sides of pork patties. Cook about 5-7 minutes, before flipping burgers over. Cook additional 4-7 minutes, or until burgers are just cooked through.
- Meanwhile, place pineapple chunks in food processor. Pulse “grind” or “chop” for 1 second; only 2 or 3 times (you want the pineapple to be in various sizes, ranging from tiny to 1/2-inch with a little bit of pulp). Place pineapple in small bowl.
- To bowl with pineapple, stir in mayonnaise, cilantro, lime juice, green onions, and salt.
- To assemble burgers, line each bottom bun with 2 lettuce leaves, top with a small dollop of pineapple mayo, then top with pork burger. Top pork burger with sliced red cabbage and more pineapple mayo. Add top buns. Serve immediately.
