Ingredients

• 1 whole Fresh pineapple
• 60 ml Dark rum
• 50 g Brown sugar
• 1 tsp Ground cinnamon
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 25 g Butter
• 1 tbsp Vegetable oil

Directions

Step 1

Peel the pineapple and remove the core. Slice it into rings or spears, about 1/2-inch thick.

Step 2

In a small bowl, whisk together the dark rum, brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and vanilla extract until the sugar dissolves.

Step 3

Place the pineapple slices in a shallow dish and pour the rum mixture over them. Let the pineapple marinate for at least 10 minutes, flipping halfway to ensure even coating.

Step 4

Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Brush the grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Step 5

While the grill is heating, melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe dish. Brush melted butter onto the pineapple slices for an extra caramelized effect.

Step 6

Place the pineapple slices on the hot grill. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until grill marks appear and the pineapple is lightly caramelized.

Step 7

Remove the pineapple from the grill and serve warm. Optionally, pair with a scoop of vanilla ice cream or drizzle with extra rum sauce.
