			Directions:
			1. Char the Pineapple
Slice pineapple into thin rings or chunks.
Grill or sear on a hot skillet for 2 to 3 minutes per side until caramelized/charred.
Set aside.
2. Prep the Jalapenos
Fresh: slice thin into rings for a crunchy, spicy bite.
Pickled: drain and pat dry for tangy heat.
3. Cook the Beef
In a large skillet, brown the ground beef until fully cooked.
Drain excess fat.
Stir in Manwich sauce, reduce heat, and let simmer for 5 minutes.
4. Build the Sliders
Lightly toast the Kings Hawaiian rolls.
Place a slice of charred pineapple onto the bottom half of each roll.
Spoon Manwich mixture over the top and add 1 to 2 jalapeno slices.
Add cilantro leaves if desired, then cap with the top roll.
5. Serve and Celebrate
Arrange on a platter and serve warm.
		 
	
	
	
		
			
			Pro Tip for Filming: Brush the rolls with melted butter before toasting for a glossy camera-ready finish.
