Categories Dinner Entree Lunch Main Course

Time 1h5m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 7

Ingredients

4 10- to 12-ounce (284- to 340-gm) boneless ribeye steaks, (about 2.5 to 3 pounds, or 1.13 to 1.36 kg total)
1/2 cup (120 ml) plus 2 tablespoons pineapple juice
2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce (preferably tamari)
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon brown sugar
2 large cloves garlic, peeled, smashed, and finely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger

Steps:

Place the steaks in a single layer in a deep, nonreactive dish. Or if you're short on refrigerator space, divide them between a couple of gallon-sized plastic freezer bags.
In a large liquid measuring cup, whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger.
Pour the marinade over the steaks, making sure the meat is coated on all sides.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 40 minutes, or overnight. (If you're marinating the steaks in Ziploc-style bags, squeeze out as much excess air as possible before sealing the bags).
Preheat the grill and oil the grate . Remove the steaks from the marinade, and place on the grill. Discard any excess marinade.
Grill the steaks to your desired level of doneness. (Cooking times will vary based on the thickness of the steaks, and the heat of your grill, but figure about 5 minutes per side for a 1- to 1 1/2-inch steak cooked to medium.)

When the steaks are done, transfer them to a platter and serve. Enjoy.

Tips:

Choose ripe and fresh pineapple: The quality of your pineapple will greatly impact the flavor of your Grilled Hawaiians. Make sure to select ripe pineapples with vibrant yellow-orange flesh and green, spiky leaves.
Slice the pineapple correctly: To create the signature Hawaiian bread shape, cut the pineapple into 1-inch thick rounds, then cut each round into quarters. Remove the core from each quarter.
Use high-quality ham and cheese: The ham and cheese are key ingredients in Grilled Hawaiians. Opt for high-quality, thinly sliced ham and cheese that melt well. Look for deli ham that is not too salty and cheese that is flavorful and gooey when melted.
Grill the pineapple slices: Grilling the pineapple slices adds a smoky flavor and caramelizes the natural sugars, creating a delicious contrast with the ham and cheese. Make sure to preheat your grill to medium-high heat and grill the pineapple slices for a few minutes per side, or until they are slightly charred and caramelized.
Assemble the Grilled Hawaiians: Once the pineapple slices are grilled, it's time to assemble the Grilled Hawaiians. Place a slice of ham on a grilled pineapple slice, followed by a slice of cheese. Top with another grilled pineapple slice and secure with a toothpick.
Serve immediately: Grilled Hawaiians are best served hot and fresh off the grill. Enjoy them as a main course or as a delightful appetizer.
