I thought it was cool that she added a homemade BBQ sauce; I'm always on the search for one without high fructose corn syrup and/or low sugar. This one has molasses and brown sugar, so probably not so much on the low sugar, but at least there's no corn syrup.
Definitely a yummy burger; we all loved it and it was a perfect pairing with the veggie skewers I served alongside.

Directions:
Heat a grill to medium-high heat.
Heat a grill to medium-high heat.
To make the barbecue sauce, combine all
the ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring
occasionally, until the sauce thickens and is reduced to about 1 cup,
about 7 minutes. Remove from the heat. Chill until ready to use.
To make the burgers, combine the ground
chicken, cornmeal, scallion, cilantro, brown sugar, spices, pulled pork
(if using) and 2 tablespoons of the barbecue sauce in a medium bowl and
mix gently until well combined. Form the mixture into four equal
patties. Transfer to a plate and refrigerate until ready to grill.
Oil the grates of the grill. Place the
burger patties on the heated grill and cook about 3-4 minutes. Flip the
burgers and brush the cooked sides generously with some of the
remaining 3 tablespoons of barbecue sauce. Cook about 3 minutes, then
flip once more and brush the second side with barbecue sauce. Top with
cheese slices, if using. Cook just until cooked through and cheese is
melted. Place the burgers on the toasted buns and top with grilled
onion slices and additional barbecue sauce as desired.
