Makes: 12 servings
Prep Time: 20 - 30 minutes
Cook Time: 10 - 20 minutes

Ingredients:

1 lb	Ground Beef (95% lean)
1 tbsp	Worcestershire Sauce
4	Canned Pineapple Slices, drained
12	Hawaiian Sweet or Small Whole Wheat Dinner Rolls, split
Lettuce

Sauce:

1/4 cup	Barbecue Sauce
1/4 cup	Pineapple Preserves
1 tbsp	Packed Light Brown Sugar

Directions:

Combine Ground Beef and Worcestershire sauce in medium bowl, mixing lightly but thoroughly. Lightly shape into twelve 1/2-inch thick mini patties. Set aside.
Combine sauce ingredients in small saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Remove from heat.
Preheat grill to medium.
Place patties on cooking grid. Grill, covered, 9 to 11 minutes until instant-read thermometer inserted horizontally into center registers 160°F, turning occasionally.
Cook's Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
Meanwhile brush pineapple slices with sauce and place on grid around patties. Grill pineapple 4 minutes, turning once and brushing with additional sauce. Remove pineapple, keep warm. Brush burgers with remaining sauce after turning.
Cut each pineapple slice into thirds. Line bottom of each roll with lettuce, top with burger, then with pineapple piece. Close sandwiches.
