Preparation:
I like to save time on this recipe by buying pre-made fresh salsa and pre-cut fresh pineapple! If you want to make your own salsa and trim your own pineapple–knock yourself out!
Preheat the grill to high heat. In a large bowl, combine the chorizo, pork, garlic, Worcestershire, salt, thyme and oregano. Work the chorizo through pork mixture.
Divide the mixture into 4-6 portions, then shape it into patties.
Carefully slice the pineapple into ½ inch rounds.
Grill the patties 3 minutes per side for six, or 5 minutes per side for four patties.
Next, grill the pineapple slices for 2 minutes per side.
Toast the buns on the grill for 1 minute.
Remove the avocado from the peel, then slice 1/4 inch thick.
To assemble: place the patty on the bottom bun, followed by the pineapple, avocado slices, and the Pico on top. Cover with the bun and enjoy!
