Are you looking for a simple recipe to impress your family and friends? It doesn’t get much easier than this – Pineapple on the grill!
- Buy a fresh pineapple. You will want to look for one that is firm with gold to brown skin. The leaves should not be brown or wilted. The pineapple should smell like fresh pineapple.
- With a large knife, cut off about 1/2 inch from the top and bottom.
- Turn your pineapple right side up and make your first cut behind the “eye” at the top of the pineapple
- Continue slicing downward behind the “eye” taking care to not take off to much fruit.
- If you have a pineapple corer you can use it now, otherwise just slice the pineapple in slices, about 1/4 inch think
- Heat grill on high for about five minutes
- Turn down grill to medium and place pineapple directly on grill
- Cook pineapple for about 3 – 5 minutes and then flip, cooking for about another 3 – 5 minutes
I like to serve this as a side dish but it would also be awesome on a ham sandwich or on a Hawaiian pizza.
Enjoy!
How can it possibly be this simple huh? I almost bought a pineapple a few days ago…now I definitely have to. Love this idea.
I know! I heard it was easy but I was surprised about how easy it was. You definitely need that pineapple
Grilled pineapple is sooo amazing. One more reason I need to get a grill!
I LOVE my grill! My husband prefers charcoal but the gas is soooo much easier. I’m getting very adventurous this year. Hope you get yours soon
I JUST got a pineapple corer thingy!! Cool! Can’t wait to do this. Thanks!
I couldn’t find mind
Oh well, it worked fine without it. Have fun with yours!
We just bought some fruits and veggies to do on the grill too!

With the exception of my roasted potatoes, I haven’t really found a favorite veggie on the grill recipe. You’ll have to post what you do!
Thanks for stopping by.
