Grilled Pineapple is coated in honey and lemon and grilled to perfection. It makes the perfect accompaniment to any meal. We try to grill as much as possible in the summer. We love to grill meats and vegetables and our newest favorite thing to throw on the grill is pineapple. You can use fresh pineapple or canned pineapple. Of course, fresh pineapple is better. If you are using canned pineapple buy the pineapple rings. If you need a quick and easy summer side dish or dessert give it a try.
