From Jana's Blog:
I made some really tasty grilled pineapple to go with the kabobs I was making the other day and they were so good I thought I would pass my recipe on.
The first trick is to pick a good pineapple. When you go to the store pick up the pineapple and turn it upside down, the ones with a little bit of mold growing on the bottom are usually the sweetest. (I got that tip from Kat, and she lived in Hawaii, so she would know). Also a good indicator of a ripe pineapple is the smell… if it smells pineappley, that is a good sign.
Grilled Pineapple
1/2 a pineapple cored and cut into large chunks
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1-2 tablespoons orange juice
Toss pineapple in the rest of the ingredients to coat. Place on grill and pour the rest of the mixture over pineapple.
Grill over medium heat for 5 minutes on each side.
Great as a dessert or even served with grilled meats (Tucano’s style).
Try it, it’s delicious!
