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
Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium heat.
- Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise from the very top to the bottom (keeping the leaves on). Then cut each half lengthwise in half again, so you have 4 long pieces with leaves at one end.
- Add the jelly, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and salt to a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring, until the mixture is fully combined and liquid.
- Brush the pineapple with some of the mixture (reserve the remaining mixture), transfer to the grill and grill 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove to a platter and, using a sharp knife, cut the bottom ends off each piece of pineapple. Then, carefully cut lengthwise from the bottom to the top of each piece along the skin (separating the fruit from the skin), and then crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
- Drizzle the remaining apricot mixture over the pineapple. Serve with vanilla ice cream.

Tips:
- Opt for ripe pineapples with vibrant yellow skin and a fragrant aroma. If unavailable, choose slightly underripe pineapples and let them ripen at room temperature for a few days. - Use a sharp knife to remove the pineapple skin and eyes efficiently. Alternatively, consider purchasing pre-cut pineapple slices to save time. - If you prefer a smokier flavor, opt for grilling the pineapple slices on a charcoal grill. However, a gas grill works equally well for this recipe. - To achieve a caramelized glaze, ensure the pineapple slices are cooked over medium-high heat and basted frequently with the orange glaze. - Don't overcrowd the grill. Leave sufficient space between the pineapple slices to allow for even cooking and browning.Conclusion:
Nunu's Dancin' Orange Glazed Grilled Pineapple offers a delightful balance of sweet, tangy, and smoky flavors, making it an ideal side dish or dessert. The orange glaze adds a zesty touch that perfectly complements the natural sweetness of the pineapple.
