Servings: persons

1-1/2 pounds fully cooked boneless ham
3/4 pound ground pork
2 large eggs
2/3 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/3 cup unsweetened crushed pineapple plus 3 tablespoons juice
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
8 slices Swiss cheese (1 ounce each)
8 kaiser rolls, split
2 large tomatoes, cut in sixteen 1/4-inch slices
1/2 cup honey mustard salad dressing
1-1/2 cups fresh baby arugula, packed
Additional honey mustard salad dressing, optional

1
Pulse ham in food processor until finely ground. Combine with pork, eggs, cracker crumbs, brown sugar, pineapple and juice, mustard and cloves. Mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into eight patties. Using fingertips, make a shallow indentation in center of each patty so it remains flat while grilling. Refrigerate 1 hour.
2
Grill burgers, covered, on a greased rack over medium-high direct heat for 5-6 minutes; turn and grill another 3-4 minutes. Add a slice of cheese to each burger; grill, covered, until cheese melts, 1-2 minutes more. Remove from heat when a thermometer reads 160u00b0.
3
Place a burger on bottom half of each roll; add two tomato slices. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon honey mustard dressing. Divide arugula evenly among rolls; top each burger with a few sprigs. Replace top half of roll. If desired, serve with additional dressing.
