Description

This vibrant dessert brings the taste of the islands to your backyard grill. Fresh pineapple wedges are brushed with a complex sauce made from butter, brown sugar, honey, and dark rum, then grilled until caramelized and charred. The heat brings out the natural sweetness of the fruit while adding a smoky depth that pairs perfectly with the tangy Worcestershire note. It&# 226;€™s an easy, elegant way to end a summer dinner party or a casual barbecue. Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a striking contrast of hot and cold textures.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Combine Worcestershire sauce, honey, butter, brown sugar, and dark rum in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a full boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to dissolve the sugar.
  3. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 12 minutes, stirring often, until the sauce is slightly thickened.
  4. Remove the sauce from heat and allow it to cool completely.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat and oil the grates to prevent sticking.
  6. Brush the pineapple wedges generously with some of the cooled rum sauce.
  7. Place the pineapple wedges on the grill.
  8. Grill for about 5 minutes, turning and basting frequently with the remaining sauce until the fruit is glazed and has char marks.
  9. Serve the warm grilled pineapple wedges alongside a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
  10. Drizzle with the leftover sauce and garnish as desired.
