Start by preparing the pineapple salsa. In a bowl, combine the diced pineapple, red onion, red and green bell peppers, jalapeño (if using), lime juice, cilantro, salt, and pepper. Mix well, then refrigerate the salsa while you prepare the burgers.
In a separate bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika. Gently mix until the seasonings are evenly distributed. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
Preheat your grill or stovetop pan over medium-high heat. Grill or pan-fry the burger patties to your desired level of doneness, usually about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty and let it melt.
While the burgers are cooking, you can toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until they are lightly browned.
To assemble the burgers, spread a tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato on top of the mayonnaise.
Place a cooked burger patty with melted cheese on top of the tomato. Add a slice of cooked bacon on each patty.
Spoon a generous portion of the pineapple salsa over the bacon.
Drizzle about a tablespoon of teriyaki sauce over the pineapple salsa.
Finally, place the top half of the bun over the burger to complete the assembly.
