How to Make Grilled Pineapple Delight
- Preheat your grill to high heat.
- Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
- Cut off the rind of one whole pineapple (about 5 lbs), leaving the green leaves intact.
- Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise, through the leaves and fruit, creating 8 slender wedges with leaves attached.
- Trim the tough core from each pineapple wedge.
- Melt 1/2 cup (1 stick) of unsalted butter in a shallow dish.
- In a separate shallow dish, combine 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves.
- Dip each pineapple wedge into the melted butter, ensuring it's fully coated. Then, dredge in the sugar-spice mixture, gently shaking off any excess.
- Grill the pineapple wedges for 5-8 minutes per side, or until beautifully browned and slightly caramelized, and sizzling sounds are heard.
- Carefully transfer the grilled pineapple wedges to a serving plate or platter.
- Serve immediately with a scoop of your favorite vanilla ice cream for the ultimate summer treat!
