Set aside. Cut the pears in half lengthwise and remove the cores. Squeeze the lemon over the cut sides of the pears to prevent browning. In a shallow bowl, stir together the sugar and cinnamon. Dip the cut sides of the pears in the cinnamon sugar. Grill the pears, cut side down, directly over medium-high heat until the fruit is grill-marked and the sugar is caramelized, 2 to 4 minutes. Do not allow the pears to char. Using a spatula, turn the pears over and grill until tender and heated through, 3 to 4 minutes. If the pears start to char, move them to a cooler part of the grill to cook. Serve the pears topped with the raspberry sauce and with a scoop of vanilla ice cream alongside. Serves 4. Serving Tip: Serve the grilled pears with a small glass of pear eau-de-vie, a clear fruit brandy.
