Tips & Tricks (5)

Choose the Right Pineapple 🍍
Select a pineapple that's firm with a golden-yellow color and sweet aroma at the base; avoid overly soft or green ones, as they won't caramelize properly on the grill.
Dry Your Slices Thoroughly 💧
Pat pineapple slices completely dry with paper towels before grilling to ensure proper caramelization and prevent steaming on the grill grates.
Cut Thick, Uniform Slices ✂️
Slice the pineapple at least ¾-inch thick and keep core intact for structural integrity; this prevents the fruit from falling apart and ensures even cooking.
Oil the Grill, Not the Fruit 🔥
Brush oil on your grill grates rather than the pineapple itself to prevent sticking and promote beautiful caramelization without excess oil burning off.
Finish with Brown Sugar and Cinnamon 🤎
Sprinkle a light coating of brown sugar and cinnamon on the pineapple slices just before serving to enhance natural sweetness and add sophisticated warm spice notes.
