OK, what's the verdict: Which makes a better bun?

Heat grill to medium-high. In a large bowl, combine ground beef and Worcestershire and season with salt and pepper. Form into 4 patties.

Grill patties, pineapple, and red onion until charred, 3 minutes per side. Top burger patties with pepper jack and cover grill to let melt, 1 minute.

Top bottom pineapple buns with lettuce, burger patties, bacon, and grilled onions, then top with pineapple bun.

If on keto... it is not very keto friendly so watch out. Slices of pineapple can range from 7 to 22grams depending on the diameter and thickness of the slice. So be careful all with this!

When I stopped eating the 1/2 c strawberries in my smoothies, my A1c dropped 0.8 mg/dL alone.  Healthier means less sugar including NATURAL sugar and my improved health is an example of that fact.  And now I've had a full year of normal blood sugars based on my quarterly exams.  Sugar of any kind is just a candy-addition to recipes and NOT necessary.  So I would never use the "8 slices pineapple" in any recipe I would choose to prepare.  Same thing for the red onion rings -- they have the highest sugar content of the cooking onions which is why I add ONLY green onions for my onion flavor and I save 2 grams of carbs that way and I gain MORE vitamin A and important eye nutrients by doing so like the Vit A,. Lutein and astazanthin plus a lot of the important mineral nutrients in the green onions that are double what is found in red, yellow or white onions. This includes iron, magnesium,  potassium, calcium, Vitamin C, as well as all the other nutrients in the green onions that are missing in the other onions or far less content in the red, white and yellow cooking onions.  Everything we add to our recipes either contribute nutrition or don't so I am interested in making my health better with green onions.     .
