Grilled fruit is a summertime favorite and this grilled pineapple needs to be a part of your menu. It is super tasty! With a hint of orange and a hint of chipotle, the glaze is fabulous. Most of the alcohol from the rum cooks off and adds a richness to the flavor. We love how the pineapple caramelizes with the grilling process. It would add a bit of extra flavor to a hamburger or make a fabulous summertime dessert. Put my mind in gear for my first adventure in grilling pineapple, which turned out to be a huge success! With that in mind, fixed it for our Lions Club Picnic and everyone wanted to know how I did it and was asking for the recipe. For a real treat, fix your next hamburger with a slice of pineapple, along with a slice of tomato and red onion ... It is fantastic!
Ingredients :
- 1 large fresh pineapple
- 1/2 cup(s) rum
- 1/2 cup(s) orange marmalade
- 3/4 cup(s) brown sugar
- 6 tablespoon(s) butter
- 2 teaspoon(s) vanilla
- 1/4 teaspoon(s) ground chipotle pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) ground cinnamon
Intructions :
- Peel, core, and cut pineapple into 3/4-1 inch slices
- In a small saucepan mix together the rum, marmalade, brown sugar, butter, vanilla, chipotle pepper, and cinnamon. Note: Use 1/2 teaspoon of chipotle pepper for an added 'Kick'n Dance Step' if you wish
- Heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved
- On a pre-heated hot grill lightly oil the grill. Place pineapple slices on the grill
- With a basting brush, baste the pineapple slices with the 'Danc'n Orange' glaze while grilling
- Turn the slices over and baste the other side. Note: The recipe for the glaze/basting sauce is enough to handle the grilling of '3' fresh pineapples
- Continue basting and turning over the pineapple slices occasionally; grilling for 10-15 minutes
- Remove slices from the grill and paint some more glaze on them
- Leave rings whole or cut each slice/ring in half and serve
- For a dessert, serve hot with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
