Steps:
- Peel pineapple and cut lengthwise into eight wedges; remove core. Line pineapple in a rimmed baking sheet or 9x13 pan. Set aside. *See Notes on detailed instructions on how to peel pineapple.
- Melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar and stir to dissolve. Carefully stir in orange juice (as it will bubble up), followed by chili powder, salt, pepper and cloves. Increase heat and bring to a simmer until the mixture reduces to about 1/2 cup and thickens into a thin syrupy consistency (it will continue to thicken upon standing so don't thicken too much). Remove from heat and stir in lime juice.
- Let cool a few minutes then pour approximately 2/3 of Glaze over pineapple. Turn to coat. Reserve the remaining Glaze for basting. If your reserved Glaze becomes to thick, stir in a little water and return to heat.
- Grill pineapple over direct medium heat, basting with reserved glaze, turning occasionally, until pieces have golden brown grill marks in places, about 7-10 minutes. Serve with remaining Glaze and additional lime and chili powder if desired.
GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH CILANTRO
For delicious this side dish you don't need to spend a lot of time. It's easy and fast to prepare. Fits perfectly with other pacific islands chicken or fish recipes. Posted for ZWT7. For a Tex-Mex version don't use sesame oil and soya sauce and replace some salt and some drops tabasco if desired. Thanks!

- Note: I've never tried this recipe with canned pineapple and canned roasted peppers. I suppose that this would work as well too. In any case I'm sure that the fresh ones are better! If you try, please let me know!

These are SO easy and really good. The hot sauce gives it an extra kick and cuts the sweetness. They can help with patience while the rest of the grilled feast comes together, but be warned, they go quickly!

Steps:
- Prepare a charcoal grill with a single layer of hot coals.
- When the grill is ready, brush the pineapple wedges lightly with the oil and place them on the grill. Cook for 6 to 8 minutes per side until nicely charred and lightly colored. Remove to a serving plate and drizzle with honey.
Tips:
- Choose ripe pineapples: Look for pineapples with bright yellow skin and a slightly sweet aroma. Avoid pineapples with green skin or brown spots.
- Prepare the pineapple properly: Cut off the top and bottom of the pineapple, then slice it into 1-inch thick rounds. Remove the core from each round.
- Marinate the pineapple: Marinating the pineapple in a mixture of olive oil, lime juice, cilantro, and spices will help to infuse it with flavor and prevent it from sticking to the grill.
- Grill the pineapple over medium heat: Grill the pineapple rounds for 5-7 minutes per side, or until they are slightly caramelized and grill marks appear.
- Serve the pineapple immediately: Grilled pineapple can be served on its own or as a side dish with grilled meats or fish. It can also be used in salads, tacos, or kebabs.
