Ingredients
1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and sliced into rings or wedges
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
Prepare the pineapple: Peel, core, and slice the pineapple into rings or wedges about 1/2 inch thick to ensure even grilling.
Coat the pineapple: Brush both sides of each pineapple slice with melted butter, then sprinkle evenly with brown sugar to coat.
Grill the pineapple: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the pineapple slices directly on the grill grates and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the pineapple is caramelized and has visible grill marks.
Serve warm: Remove from the grill and serve immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
Use fresh, ripe pineapple for the best sweetness and flavor.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar if you prefer less sweetness.
Grilled pineapple pairs well with ice cream or can be served as a side dish with grilled meats.
If you don’t have a grill, you can use a grill pan on the stovetop.
