Grilled Pineapple Rumaki image

Adapted from Barbecue USA. To set up a three-zone fire on a charcoal grill, rake half the lit coals into a double layer on one-third of the bottom grate. The rest of the coals go in a single layer in the center; the other third of the grate should have no coals. This gives you three different heat zones--a hot zone for searing, a medium zone for cooking, and a safety zone for holding food. Prep time includes marinating time.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h15m

Yield 36 rumaki, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons brown sugar (to taste)
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 piece fresh ginger, 1-inch long peeled and finely grated
1 very ripe pineapple, peeled. cored, and cut into 36 chunks
12 slices bacon, cut crosswise into thirds
36 sprigs fresh herbs (cilantro, mint, or whatever you wish)

Steps:

  • Combine all marinade ingredients in a nonreactive bowl.
  • Add pineapple and stir.
  • Let marinate 1 hour.
  • Drain marinade and strain into a saucepan.
  • Bring to a boil over high heat.
  • Cook until syrupy, about 5 minutes. Set aside.
  • Wrap each pineapple piece with an herb sprig and a piece of bacon.
  • Secure the bacon with a bamboo skewer or a wooden toothpick.
  • Can be prepared several hours ahead up to this point.
  • Set up grill for three-zone grilling and preheat (see intro for instructions).
  • Brush and oil the grill grate.
  • If using skewers, fold a length of aluminum foil in half lengthwise and place on grate on the edge closest to you, so that it covers all three heat zones. (You will not need the foil if using toothpicks; it's to keep the ends of the skewers from burning.).
  • Place rumaki on hot zone. If using skewers, make sure the ends are on top of the foil shield. Do this in batches if necessary.
  • Grill until bacon is crisp, 2-3 minutes on each side, basting with the reserved marinade syrup.
  • Move to medium or cool zone if the bacon fat causes flareups.
  • Serve drizzled with any remaining glaze.
  • If using toothpicks, be sure to take them out!

Not impressed. The pineapple didn't add much flavor and the dish was overall bland.

Disappointed. The grilled pineapple wasn't as flavorful as I expected and the chicken was a bit dry.

Absolutely loved this recipe! The grilled pineapple adds such a delicious caramelized flavor to the dish. Can't wait to make it again.

Not a fan. The pineapple overpowered the other flavors and the texture was a bit mushy.

The pineapple rumali came out great! I was a bit hesitant about the pineapple, but it actually worked really well. The kids loved it, especially with the teriyaki sauce. We will definitely be making this again!

I tried rumali with my air fryer – turned out amazing and much healthier than grilled! Still super flavorful, juicy chicken and gooey cheese, pineapple adding a tangy kick. Highly recommend trying this air fryer version!
