  • Cut the pineapple into thick slices, about 1 inch thick. This will help them to stay intact on the grill.
  • Brush the pineapple slices with melted butter or oil to help them caramelize and prevent them from sticking to the grill.
  • Grill the pineapple slices over medium heat for about 5 minutes per side, or until they are nicely charred and caramelized.
  • Serve the grilled pineapple slices immediately with your favorite toppings, such as ice cream, whipped cream, or fruit salsa.
