Grilled Pineapple.jpgIs your grill tired of the same old thing every year:  chicken, pork beef, fish, chicken, pork, beef, fish.  Why not try grilling some fruit for a change this year?  Sounds like the perfect sweet addition to our Memorial Day cookout menu.  This Sugared Pineapple Spears & Mango Stars recipe will knock everyone’s socks off!  Enjoy this easy recipe along with those famous perfect burgers of mine.

Ingredients:

  • 1 fresh pineapple, sliced into spears 
  • 3 mangos, halved
  • 1 stick, or 8 tablespoons, unsalted butter
  • 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
  • Sanding sugar

What’s Next:

Go ahead & fire up the grill to medium heat.

Slice your pineapple into spears & set aside.  Half your mangos & then cut with star cookie cutter, you should be able to get one star out of each half. 

On the grill & in a small saucepan- heat your butter & granulated sugar together. Brush the fruit lightly with the butter mixture, reserving the rest of it.

Grill the fruit uncovered for 5 - 7 minutes, or until softened with caramelized edges.  Brush with the remaining butter & sprinkle generously with sanding sugar.  And now you’re ready for the best part- eating it all up!

 

Eat well & Laugh often!
