Hawaiian Bacon Sliders w/Pineapple Slaw

Hawaiian Bacon Sliders

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb. ground beef
• garlic powder
• onion powder
• a few dashes of Liquid Smoke
• salt and pepper to taste
• Smokey seasoning (I use the mix from Practical Paleo)
• fresh pineapple or canned chunks
• bacon (one slice for each burger you make--I made 6, so I used 6 pcs. bacon)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 400.  Mix ground meat, garlic powder, onion powder, Liquid Smoke, salt, and pepper together.  Flatten a meatball size portion of meat into small patty.  Top with a few chunks of pineapple and then wrap each patty with one slice of bacon.  Sprinkle Smokey seasoning mix atop each patty.  Cooking times will vary, about 20 minutes.  Cook until desired wellness and the bacon is crisp.

 

Pineapple Slaw:

1 bag of Cole Slaw (I know, I was a little lazy today.  Use fresh if you have the time and energy.)
3/4 to 1 cup mayonnaise (your favorite Paleo Mayo works great)
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon dried dill
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon salt
juice of 1/2 lemon
2 Tbsp. Apple Cider Vinegar
1 Tbsp. local honey
1 cup pineapple chunks

Since I had just made my mayo in my Ninja, I just added all the above ingredients and processed.  Pour dressing over Cole Slaw in bowl and chill in the fridge.  Serve on side of your burgers!  Maybe even on top!  Enjoy!
