gaynel's Notes:

When having a BBQ I like to include fruits and vegetables. This is a pineapple recipe that is great along side grilled chicken or brats. The sweetness is heavenly and the grilling subsides some of the strong acid the fruit yields

Directions

Remove leafy top of pineapple and reserve for garnish

Cut pineapple lengthwise into 8 wedges. Slash pineapple with sharp knife verticle slashes 1 inch apart down to but not thru skins

Heat butter in small saucepan on grill until melted. add honey, lime juice and ginger

brush cut surfaces of pineapple with butter mixture and place on grill. Grill 15 minutes, turning every 5 minutes and brushing with butter mixture.

place reserved top in center of serving platter and lay grilled wedges around for a nice presentation. ENJOY !

It is actually cold here today, and going to rain. Got a big BBQ coming up the 9th tho, and planning on serving this. I love pineapple, but the acid tears up my lips , mouth and stomache. If I fix it for the bbq, can share that way :)
