Mix the ground beef with the garlic, ginger, coconut aminos, oyster/fish sauce, breadcrumbs and spices. Form into 4 burger patties.
Heat a grill to medium-high heat. Once hot, add the burger patties and cook for about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.
While the burgers are cooking, make the teriyaki sauce. Add all of the ingredients to a small saucepan.
Turn the heat to high and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low to allow it to simmer. Simmer until the sauce has thickened into a glaze, about 5 minutes. Turn off the heat.
Spread the teriyaki sauce on both sides of the sliced pineapple using a pastry brush. Add the pineapple to the grill with sliced onion and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the pineapple is caramelized.
Assemble the burger: place lettuce on the bottom bun followed by the sliced red onion. Add the burger patty, 1-2 pineapple slices, a drizzle of teriyaki sauce and some sesame seeds. Top the burger with the top bun.
Serve and enjoy!
