Sweet, smoky, and loaded with bold tropical flavor, this burger delivers everything you love about a backyard cookout without a single grain or processed ingredient in sight. The patties are seasoned with coconut aminos, fresh garlic, ginger, and a touch of turmeric, giving them a deeply savory depth that goes way beyond a basic beef burger. Coconut aminos do a lot of heavy lifting here — they stand in for soy sauce and Worcestershire in both the meat and the pineapple glaze, so you get that umami punch without anything off-limits. The pineapple rings are caramelized until golden and sticky at the edges, adding a juicy sweetness that plays perfectly against the richly browned beef. Instead of a bun, crisp butter lettuce leaves wrap everything together, keeping things light and fresh while still giving you that satisfying handheld experience. The creamy avocado sauce — blended with apple cider vinegar and ginger — ties every layer together and makes each bite feel genuinely indulgent. This is the kind of recipe that makes it easy to forget you're eating clean.

Make the avocado sauce: mash the avocados in a small bowl until smooth, then stir in the coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, ginger, and salt until fully combined. Set aside.
Combine the ground beef, coconut aminos, garlic, ginger, turmeric, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Mix gently until just combined, then divide into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Press a shallow indent in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent doming during cooking.
