Jerk Halloumi & Pineapple Burgers are salty, sweet, spicy and gloriously messy in the best possible way. Charred pineapple and squeaky halloumi make a brilliant meat-free pairing for the barbecue or griddle. It gets its bold flavour from our Jerk Seasoning.

🧾 Ingredients

• 450g halloumi, cut into 8 thick slices
• 1½ tbsp Jerk Seasoning
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 8 pineapple rings
• 4 brioche or seeded burger buns
• 150g prepared crunchy slaw
• 4 tbsp mayonnaise
• 1 lime, zest and 1 tbsp juice
• Lettuce leaves
• Chilli sauce, optional

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Mix the mayonnaise with the lime zest and juice, then set aside.
2. Brush the halloumi with oil and sprinkle evenly with Jerk Seasoning.
3. Cook the halloumi and pineapple on a hot barbecue or griddle for 2–3 minutes per side until charred.
4. Lightly toast the cut sides of the burger buns.
5. Layer lettuce, lime mayonnaise, slaw, halloumi and pineapple inside each bun. Add chilli sauce if wanted.
