Fresh Salmon Burger Recipe - Cooking Index
When pulsing the salmon in the food processor, do not let it get mushy. Allowing some texture to remain will make a better burger.

Coarsely chop the salmon with a knife. Place in a food processor and pulse the machine on and off to achieve a coarse texture. Do not overprocess.
Lightly combine the salmon with the remaining ingredients except the buns and garnish. Form into 6 patties (about 3 inches in diameter and 1 inch thick).
Preheat coals for grilling. Brush the grill with vegetable oil.
Grill the burgers over hot coals for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until just cooked through. (Turn carefully.) Serve the burgers immediately on buns topped with 1 tablespoon of either Fresh Pineapple Relish or Golden Pineapple Relish.
