Toast bagels on the grill on both sides until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

Remove beef from refrigerator/cooler and form into patties, just larger than the size of the bagels. Using the cap of a water bottle, remove a hole from the middle of the burger. Re-use inner circle for another patty. Place patties on hot grill and let stand for five minutes with cover on, or bottom has browned. Flip, cover, and let stand for another five minutes or until patty is cooked through. Remove hole from the middle of cheese slices and place on top of patty so holes line up. Cover the grill and let stand until cheese is melted, then remove from heat.

Coat top half of bagel with pineapple ketchup. Stack burger and one slice of pineapple on bottom half, making sure that center hole all line up. Stack top half on top. Serve immediately.
