1/2 tsp salt
1 large beet, peeled and thinly sliced into rounds on a mandoline

Burgers

1 lb (450 g) medium-lean ground pork
6 slices cooked bacon, thinly sliced
1 green onion, chopped
8 slices Pacific Rock cheese (or cheddar)
4 brioche hamburger buns

Preparation

Beet Chiffonade

In a bowl, combine the cider vinegar, water, sugar and salt. Add the beet slices. Let marinate for 10 minutes.

Toppings

In another bowl, combine the mustard and honey. Set aside.
In a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat, cook the onions in the butter until nicely golden, about 10 minutes. Set aside.

Burgers

In a bowl, combine the pork, bacon and green onion. Season with salt and pepper. With your hands or a burger press, form the mixture into four patties.
Preheat the grill, setting the burners to high. Oil the grate.
Grill the patties for 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until cooked through. Top the patties with the cheese slices and let melt for 1 minute. Toast the hamburger buns.
Spread the inside of the buns with the honey-mustard mixture. Top the bun bottoms with the burger patties, beet slices, caramelized onions, spinach and pear. Finish with the bun tops.
