- Shape the meat into evenly sized patties about the thickness of your finger to ensure they cook evenly on the grill.

- When ready, grill over a medium heat for 10- 15 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
For the Chilli Mayo Slaw:
- Finely slice the spring onion greens set aside from your burger.
- In a small bowl, mix together the hot sauce, mayo, mustard and scallions.
- Using a grater, shred the cabbage and carrot into a large bowl
- Add the lime juice and a good pinch of salt to the cabbage and carrot and mix to combine - leave to soften for 5 minutes.
- Mix in the chilli mayo making sure to reserve some for later.
For the Pineapple:
- If using a whole pineapple, cut into quarters and remove the woody core.
- Brush the pineapple with some oil and sprinkle with the brown sugar and a crack of black pepper
