Preparation

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, 1/4 cup pineapple preserves, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, remaining 2 tablespoons pineapple preserves, the onion powder, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and the black pepper, mix well.

Divide mixture into 12 equal amounts and make 12 patties.
Grill patties 4 to 6 minutes, or until desired doneness, turning them over halfway through grilling.

Place 2 pieces of cheese on each slider about 2 minutes before burgers are finished cooking.
When done, place each patty on a toasted sweet roll and top with pineapple mayonnaise sauce.
