If you’ve never tried grilled pineapple, you’re in for a real treat! The heat caramelizes the natural sugars in the fruit, turning it into something sweet, smoky, and slightly tangy. It’s one of those simple recipes that feels special perfect as a side dish for barbecues, a topping for burgers, or even served as dessert with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Honestly, it’s sunshine on a plate.
