Slice the pineapple into rings ¼ inch thick. Slice one red onion into 3 rings (1/2 inch thick). Cook the sweet potatoes in the microwave (on the potato setting) and cut them in half.
Take the meat and separate it into 4 pieces. Form a ball with each piece and press into a patty (don’t pack the meat too tightly). Slightly depress the center of each patty so meat will cook evenly. Season with salt, pepper & BBQ spice.
Heat the grill to 400 F/200 C
Place the onions on the grill 5 minutes ahead of the meat and pineapple.
Add lamb patties to the grill and surround with pineapple slices. After 5 minutes flip the burgers, onions, and pineapple. Cook for another 5 minutes. Take the meat pineapple and onions off the grill and allow the meat to rest on a separate plate.
Add the sweet potatoes and buns to the grill (cut side down). Cook for 30 seconds to warm the bun and get grill lines on the potatoes.
