Ingredients you need to make Homemade Teriyaki Burgers:
Ground Beef - One pound of your favorite type of ground beef. We used 85/15 organic ground beef.

Lettuce - Romaine or iceberg lettuce shredded.
Onion - You'll need one yellow onion to make the grilled onions. You can also use red onion.

Ketchup - For the burger sauce.

Salt - To season your burger patties.
Black Pepper - To season the burger patties. Freshly cracked or ground.
How to make the Best Teriyaki Burger:
Mix together ingredients to make the "Burger Sauce". Cover and transfer to the fridge.
Divide the ground beef into three patties and season with salt and pepper on all sides.
Heat your grill to medium heat. Lightly oil the grates.
Once the grill is hot, add pineapple rings and thick onion slices. Close lid and cook for about 3-4 minutes until bottoms have nice grill marks, then carefully flip.
Baste tops of the onions and pineapple with teriyaki sauce. Turn one side of the grill off and transfer the onion and pineapple over.
Add burger patties to the hot side of the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-well. Towards the end of the second flip baste burgers with teriyaki sauce and top with a slice of cheddar cheese. Close lid to let cheese melt.
Add buns to the grill and lightly toast.
Assemble burgers: Spread burger sauce on both buns, top with shredded lettuce, tomato slices, pineapple slice, grilled onions and finally the burger patty. Add more teriyaki sauce to the top of the burger patty. Top with bun. Enjoy!
