Heat grill to medium/high temperature. Place patties on the grill and cook for 5-7 minutes each side until desired doneness.

Brush oil on slices of pineapple, onion and green pepper, then grill 2-3 minutes on each side.

Lightly grill the bun and set aside. Spread both sides of the bun with the mayonnaise BBQ sauce.


When burger is almost finished cooking, place 1 slice of cheese on each patty and continue to grill until melted.
