Directions
Preheat a charcoal or gas grill for direct cooking over high heat. Place a large cast-iron griddle on grill rack to preheat. Remove meatballs from refrigerator; sprinkle with kosher salt and black pepper. Place meatballs 1 inch apart on hot griddle. Sear for 30 seconds. Smash burgers to ¼-inch thickness using a large spatula. Cook 6 to 8 minutes or until edges begin to brown. Turn over burgers; cook 4 to 6 minutes more or until burgers reach 160 degrees. During the last 3 to 5 minutes, place pineapple slices on grill grate; grill until charred and softened.
Butter and toast brioche hamburger buns. To assemble, brush bun bottoms with honey barbecue sauce; top each with a burger, avocado slices, pickled jalapeno slices, crispy onions, additional barbecue sauce, and bun top.
