Teriyaki Sliders

We went on vacation this Summer with my parents several years ago. While we were there, I was looking at an issue of Family Circle that my mom brought with her. The issue had a bunch a recipes I wanted to try and this recipe for teriyaki sliders happen to be one of them. However, we made it a little bit ago. We liked it but for me it was still in need of some more flavor.
When I first made these, I went to get my picture off the memory card for my camera in order to post the recipe. It wasn’t there. There were actually several items that I took pictures of that just could not be found on the memory card. So, I had to make the sliders again to get a picture. This time I made a few alterations and they turned out much better.
The patty is made from ground pork and has a texture like sausage. My family does not like mushrooms and they had no idea there was mushrooms in the patty. I didn’t change anything with that.
The original recipe had you make a sauce using mayo, sugar, and some teriyaki sauce. This sauce really lacked flavor for me and really didn’t add anything at all to the sliders. So, I added grilled pineapple and some honey teriyaki bbq sauce along with some mayo spread on the roll. So much better! Also, I made mine on the grill.

Real Mom Kitchen
Ingredients
- 1 package 12 per package mini soft dinner rolls (I used King's Hawaiian)
- 4 oz 1-1/2 cups sliced mushrooms (I used 4 mushrooms)
- 2 scallions trimmed and cut up, plus more chopped scallions, for garnish
- 2 tsp peeled and coarsely chopped fresh ginger 1-inch piece, I just measured out that stuff in a jar
- 1 lb ground pork
- ¼ cup teriyaki stir-fry sauce House of Tsang was suggested I used Kroger
- ¼ cup panko bread crumbs
- 3 slices of provolone cheese (each slice cut into 4 pieces)
- 6 rings of canned pineapple
- honey teriyaki bbq sauce I used KC Masterpiece
- light mayo
Instructions
- Heat broiler. Line a baking pan with foil; coat foil with nonstick cooking spray. Wrap rolls in foil and place in lower part of oven to warm. ( I did my patties and pineapple on the grill and didn't bother with warming the rolls)
- In a mini chopper, combine mushrooms, 2 of the scallions and the ginger (I didn't add the ginger here because I used the stuff in a jar). Pulse until finely chopped. Transfer to a medium-size bowl and add pork, 1/4 cup of the stir-fry sauce and the bread crumbs (This is when I added the jarred ginger). Stir to blend.
- Shape mixture into 12 equal-size patties, a scant 1/4 cup for each. Place patties on prepared baking pan; broil 4 inches from heat for 6 minutes, turning once, until instant-read thermometer registers 160° when inserted into center of burgers. (remember I did mine on the grill. If using the oven also cook the pineapple too. Put 1/4 of a slice of provolone on each patty just before they are done to melt the cheese)
- To build the sliders, place 1/2 ring of pineapple followed by a patty, about 1 tsp teriyaki bbq sauce, a few diced scallion, and spread a little mayo on the lid of the slider.
