Grilled Pineapple

We absolutely love to be outside cooking on the grill during the Fall time. This Summer our missionary friends came back from overseas to visit family and friends. We had the privilege to spend a lot of quality time with them, along with other local friends of ours.

One day we were grilling out burgers, brats and veggies after church. Our friends who are from overseas wanted to show us how to make a ''Brazilian Grilled Pineapple'' for dessert. I was so skeptical about eating a grilled pineapple, just seemed so weird to me? I was totally shocked, it was so simple and flavorful, and now a favorite item to cook on the grill.



Preparation:


 
CINNAMON.. FRESH OR MCCORMICK!



 



 Florida's Natural Cane Sugar. 

Medium heated grill. Serving Plates and Hungry Belly's.



1. Cut the skin off around the pineapple. Don't cut the stalk off.

2. Combine Cane Sugar and Cinnamon into shallow mixing bowl.



 
3. Rotate pineapple and coat thoroughly.  

4. On a medium heated grill, place your pinapple on the grill and rotate on each side for 2-3 minutes until some grill marks appear. 




5. Take off grill and cut off a inch all the way around and continue to repeat steps 2 & 3. It will even cook through the core. 

The whole process can take up to an hour, but it's a great time to enjoy your company outside in the beautiful Fall weather or anytime of the year!




Happy Grilling!
