Bacon Wrapped Pineapple Burgers
2 lb. ground beef
1/2 C. bbq sauce
1 can sliced pineapple, drained
sliced bacon, enough for 2 pieces per burger
Prepare grill for cooking. In a large bowl, mix together ground beef and barbecue sauce. (I used a combination of ground beef and ground pork). Season with salt and pepper.
Shape mixture into patties. Lay two pieces of bacon in a X shape. Place a patty in the middle, then place a slice of pineapple on top of each. Fold bacon up and around the patty and pineapple slice, and secure with toothpicks. Place burgers on grill over medium low heat. Cook, covered, until the burger is cooked through. Turn as needed.

After a busy weekend, I was happy to be home last night. I think I was in bed before 9:00 or 9:30. That is NOT normal for me. I am usually crawling into bed around 10 or 10:30 during the week and even later on the weekends. I plan on having another early meeting with my bed tonight.
Ok, so, I have been craving grilled pineapple. I LOVE grilled pineapple. It is so sweet and tasty. The grilling process seems to take away most of the acidity and also somewhat caramelize the sugars in the pineapple. It is so amazingly yummy!!!
Hope everyone had a good weekend!!

8 oz can sliced pineapple in juice
1/3 Cup honey
1 T. prepared mustard

1/8 tsp. hot pepper sauce
Prepare marinade, using pineapple juice, combine with honey, mustard, curry powder, salt, pepper and hot pepper sauce. Mix well. Set aside about 2+ T. of marinade. Add pork chops to the marinade, and allow to sit for a minimum of 30 minutes, turning to coat. Grill chops about 4-6 minutes on each side, basting with reserved marinade.
