BBQ Grilled Pineapple

Grilled pineapple is an exciting fusion of tropical flavors and BBQ techniques. The combination of sweet and tangy pineapple with smoky, caramelized notes makes it the perfect dessert or side dish to accompany grilled meats. Grilled fruits have a long history in Latin American and Asian cuisines, where sweet and sour combinations are often used as accompaniments to meats and fish. Pineapple is particularly well-suited for grilling because its natural sugar content allows it to caramelize easily, and it gains an even richer flavor from the smoky aroma of charcoal or gas grills. This recipe is an excellent choice for a summer BBQ party, but it can also stand alone as a quick and special dessert. For an even more extraordinary flavor profile, sprinkle with a little fresh mint or a pinch of sea salt before serving to enhance the flavors!

    Preparation Steps

    1

    Peel the pineapple, remove the tough core, and cut into slices or long strips about 1-2 cm thick.

    2

    In a bowl, combine the honey, brown sugar, lime juice, cinnamon, and smoked paprika. For an extra kick, add a splash of rum.

    3

    Brush or spoon the mixture over the pineapple slices, then let them marinate for 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to absorb.

    4

    Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Lightly grease the grates with melted butter to prevent the pineapple from sticking.

    5

    Place the pineapple slices on the grill grates and cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until caramelized grill marks appear.

    6

    Before serving, you can drizzle the fresh, warm pineapple with a little extra honey or lime juice. Serve immediately, either on its own or as a side dish with grilled meats.
