GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH VANILLA ICE CREAM AND RUM SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the top and bottom off of the pineapple, peel and cut it crosswise into 8 rings, about 1/2-inch each. Use a spoon or apple corer to carve out the center core of each ring.
• Spray a large grill pan with cooking spray and heat over a medium flame. Grill the pineapple, in 2 or 3 batches, for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until it is nicely brown and grill marks have appeared. (You can also grill this on an outdoor grill sprayed with cooking spray before being heated.)
• While the last batch of pineapple cooks, heat the butter, sugar and rum in a small saucepan over a low heat, stirring, until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce has thickened slightly, about 2 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat.
• Place a pineapple ring on each plate, scoop 1/4 cup of ice cream into the center of the ring, and drizzle about 2 teaspoons of sauce on top.

EASY (& FLAMELESS!) PINEAPPLE FOSTER

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together rum, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Then in a glass baking dish (or other container), lay out the pineapple rings and pour the rum mixture over them. Toss to coat, then let soak for at least 15 minutes, flipping the pineapple midway through.
• When you are ready to cook the pineapple, strain out the extra rum sauce from the pan of pineapple, and transfer it to a small saucepan. Bring the sauce to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for about 6-8 minutes, or until reduced by half. Set aside.
• While the sauce is cooking, heat a grill pan or saute pan over medium-high heat until hot. Lightly grease the pan with cooking spray. Add pineapple slices in an even layer (you may need to do this in multiple batches) and cook for 1-2 minutes per side until browned and grill marks appear. Transfer to a serving plates, and set aside. Repeat with remaining pineapple.
• Top each pineapple ring with a scoop of ice cream and drizzle with rum sauce. (If desired, you can also lightly dust the pineapple with some extra cinnamon.) Serve immediately.

GRILLED RUM SOAKED PINEAPPLE WITH CARAMEL GLAZE

Steps:

• Rum Marinade: In a large baking dish, add the pineapple slices. In a separate measuring cup, mix together the rum, sugar, and cinnamon. Pour the rum mixture directly over the pineapple wedges and let the marinate sit for 15 minutes, and then flip the pineapple and continue to marinate the other side for 15 minutes. Remove the pineapple slices and save the marinade!
• Preheat Grill: Prepare the grill for direct heat using lump charcoal with an internal temperature of 375 degrees Fahrenheit. Do this while the pineapple is marinating.
• Grill Pineapple: Place the pineapple slices over the direct heat for 5 to 7 minutes and then flip. You should see some nice grill marks. Continue to grill another 4 to 5 minutes or you see nice char or grill marks. Remove from grill.
• Serve: Place a warm pineapple slice on a plate and add a scoop of ice cream, and then drizzle with the rum caramel glaze and enjoy.

GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH RUM REDUCTION SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut the pineapple into 8 wedges, remove core and rind with a knife.
• Place the wedges into a freezer bag with the brown sugar, seal the bag and massage brown sugar onto the wedges.
• Allow the pineapple to macerate in the brown sugar for anywhere from two hours to two days; refrigerate if macerating more than a few hours. The pineapple should release enough juice to dissolve the brown sugar completely.
• Heat the grill to medium heat.
• Add the vanilla and rum to the bag, seal and shake.
• Remove the pineapple from the bag and place it on the grill.
• When the pineapple becomes caramel colored on the bottom side, rotate it. Repeat for each of the 3 sides of each wedge, then remove from the grill.
• Pour the juice from the bag into a saucepan and reduce over medium heat to a thick syrup (be careful of flare-ups during the first minutes since there will be alcohol from the rum and vanilla extract).
• Serve the pineapple alongside a main dish or serve with ice cream and drizzle with the reduction sauce.

RUM-GLAZED GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH LIME CRèME FRAîCHE

Steps:

• Heat the rum in a small pan over a low heat with 50ml water and stir in the sugar until it dissolves. Turn the heat up to medium and bring to the boil. Boil for 2-3 mins until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from the heat. Stir in the spices. Mix the crème fraîche with the lime zest and juice in a separate bowl.
• Arrange the coals on one side of the barbecue and light (or see tip below for cooking indoors). When the flames have died down and the coals are ashen, lay the pineapple wedges over the coals. Cook for 2-3 mins until char marks appear, then turn over.
• Brush the pineapple wedges with the rum syrup and cook for 10 mins more, moving them around the grill using tongs so they don't burn. When ready, they will be golden and soft. Remove from the barbecue, sprinkle with the chilli, if using, and serve with the lime crème fraîche.

GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH BROWN SUGAR, COCONUT, AND RUM

Steps:

• Toast coconut in a small heavy skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently, until golden-brown, about 5 minutes.
• Cut pineapple crosswise into 8 slices (about 3/4 inch thick) and core slices. Stir together remaining ingredients in a shallow glass baking dish and add pineapple in 1 layer, turning to coat evenly. Marinate, turning occasionally, 30 minutes.
• Prepare a gas grill for direct-heat cooking over medium-high heat; see Grilling Procedure .
• Oil grill rack. Grill pineapple (reserve marinade), covered, turning once, until grill marks appear and pineapple is heated through, about 4 minutes. Serve pineapple with marinade and sprinkle with toasted coconut.

GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH BUTTER-RUM GLAZE AND VANILLA MASCARPONE

Steps:

• 1. Combine the rum, butter, and sugar in a small saucepan and simmer, whisking often, until the sugar has melted and the mixture is slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. (The glaze can be made a few days in advance, cooled, covered, and kept refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before using.)
• 2. Cut the vanilla bean lengthwise in half and scrape out the seeds with the tip of a sharp knife. Whisk the mascarpone and vanilla seeds together. (The mascarpone can be made a day in advance, covered, and kept refrigerated.)
• 3. Heat your grill to high.
• 4. Grill the pineapple slices, brushing frequently with the glaze, until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• 5. Remove the pineapple to a platter or serving plates and top each slice with a dollop of vanilla mascarpone. Garnish with a few fresh blueberries. Serve immediately.
