Directions

For the FOR PINEAPPLE SOY GLAZE

  1. To make the pineapple soy glaze, use a sauce pan and mix the brown sugar, soy sauce, pineapple, garlic, lime juice, and hoisin sauce together over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer, then reduce to thicken the glaze, then remove from the heat.

  2. Roll and flatten the hamburger into 2-ounce patties.

  3. Cook the small patties to a minimum internal cook temperature of 160°F (use a calibrated handheld thermometer to verify cook temperature).

  4. Pour 2 tablespoons of glaze over the hamburger after cooking.

  5. Assemble the slider by slicing the dinner roll in half, then placing beef patty on bottom slice.

  6. Stack the SPAM® Classic on top of beef patty, drizzle additional glaze over the top, and garnish with green onions.

  7. Place top of dinner roll on the top of the stack and enjoy!
