Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and sliced into rings or wedges
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons butter, melted

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pineapple: Peel, core, and slice the pineapple into rings or wedges about 1/2 inch thick to ensure even grilling.
  2. Coat the pineapple: Brush both sides of each pineapple slice with melted butter, then sprinkle evenly with brown sugar to coat.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
