Direction:
Make marinade and pour over sliced and shredded vegetables. Set aside to pickle. (do at least an hour before you're ready to grill).
Heat grill on medium high. Shape ground pork into oblong burgers or to fit your buns. Season with real salt, and when grill is hot, put burgers on to cook. Slice rolls, and drizzle with a bit of olive oil. Grill burgers for at least 8 minutes per side, and use a thermometer to make sure you've reached at least 165 degrees. When done, remove burgers and set aside to rest for a couple of minutes. Place burgers on rolls, and top with pickled vegetables, cilantro, and another dash of olive oil. Eat!
