Glazed Pineapple

1) Trim top and bottom from pineapple and set upright. cut down the sides to remove brown skin.

2) Turn pineapple on side and slice about 1/4 inch thick, removing core if it is too tough to eat (most of the time it is.)

3) In a small pan melt your butter and add in honey. You want this to all melt together and form a glaze, but there is no need to cook it at a high temperature or for very long, just need the two to get good and friendly with each other.

4) Place pineapple slices onto a hot grill (med-hi heat), then rotate 90 degrees if you like the pretty grill pattern. Drizzle some glaze onto each slice and let them cook for 2 or 3 minutes. You want those pretty grill marks and a bit of char (a little bit) around the edges is fine.

5) Turn slices over, rotate if you like, and drizzle again with remaining glaze and let cook for a couple more minutes.

6) Serve immediately or put on an upper rack of the grill to keep warm while the rest of dinner finishes. Serve as is for a side dish or with some sweetened whipped cream for a light dessert.

For a bit of kick to your pineapple, add a bit a good cayenne pepper to your glaze and enjoy the more complex flavors.
