- 1 pineapple
- 1/4 c. brown sugar
Instructions
- Clean and oil grill grates. Preheat grill to 350-400 degrees.

- Place pineapple in resealable gallon bag or container. Sprinkle brown sugar over the top. Mix until completely coated. Let rest 10 minutes
- Place pineapple on grill and brush remaining brown sugar that's left in bag or conatiner over the top. Grill each side 2-3 minutes.
Notes
How to Cut Pineapple
- The first thing to do is to trim off the ends of the pineapple.
- Stand the pineapple up. Hold the knife parallel to the pineapple and shave off the outer skin.
- Slice the pineapple in half lengthwise. Then slice out the middle core.
- You can either slice it into half circles like we did or you can also cut into wedges, which ever you prefer.
- Also, some people like to add cinnamon with the brown sugar. If you’d like to do that add about 1 tsp cinnamon when you sprinkle the brown sugar on the pineapple.
- You can use honey instead of brown sugar, too.
- Soak your pineapple slices in Malibu Rum and then grill. Throw them on a big bowl of ice cream for sweet treat.
- Like it hot? This sounds crazy, but try some chili powder on it after you are done grilling.
