Grilled Piña Colada Pineapple

Grilled Piña Colada Pineapple. The flavor takes you right to the islands, mon.

Did you know you don’t have to go to the islands to get a good Piña Colada?

Grilled Piña Colada Pineapple

Hi. It’s Lois in the kitchen, talking about Grilled Piña Colada Pineapple, an awesomely simple way to enjoy fresh pineapple. It tastes just like the delicious drink. And what a better way to celebrate National Piña Colada Day on July 10. Make it for dessert.

It makes me feel like I am in Costa Rica at one of the Tikka restaurants. A-MAZ-ING! It comes from 100 Grilling Recipes You Can’t Live Without by Cheryl and Bill Jamison. Don is enjoying this cookbook. He’s our grillmaster.

This grilled pineapple makes a good dessert or side dish. The only problem is the waiting. You have to marinate it for an hour or more to let the flavors seep into the pineapple.

What You Need

Obviously, you’ll need a grill. We prefer a nice gas grill, but charcoal will work, too. And you need knives, measuring cups and measuring spoons. But what about some nice Fiesta dishes? Remember, your tools should last a lifetime so buy the best you can afford.
