ingredients
Pineapple-Ginger-Teriyaki Glaze
- 1/2 cup Soy Sauce
- 1/2 cup Mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
- 1/2 cup Pineapple Juice

Method
Step 1
PREPARING THE FULLBLOOD WAGYU PULLED BEEF Thaw the Fullblood Wagyu pulled beef overnight in the refrigerator. Right before starting the teriyaki glaze, place the pre-cooked pulled beef in a medium bowl and shred. Note: Wagyu pulled beef is pre-cooked and shredded. It is slow smoked with a special blend of in-house wood chips prior to packaging.
Step 2
PREPARING THE PINEAPPLE-GINGER-TERIYAKI GLAZE Mix the soy sauce, mirin, pineapple juice, minced ginger, and minced garlic in a medium sauce pan. Place the pan on the stove, and bring the liquid up to a simmer. This is your soy and pineapple mixture. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch and water to make a slurry (thickening mixture). Whisk the cornstarch slurry into the soy and pineapple mixture until it starts to thicken and boil. Remove the pan from the heat/stove and fold the ingredients into the pre-cooked Wagyu pulled beef. Reserve.
Step 3
PREPARING THE SPICY MAYO Whisk together the mayonnaise and garlic chile sauce. Set aside.
Step 4
FINAL STEPS Heat your grill to medium-high heat. Cut your pineapple and red onion. Grill the pineapple and red onion rings until soft and caramelized, about 7 minutes per side. Brush the burger buns with olive oil, and grill the buns until toasted (about 4-5 minutes). Spread the spicy mayo on the grilled bun, and add 4 ounces of the glazed Wagyu pulled beef. Top with lettuce, grilled pineapple, and grilled onion. Enjoy!
