Ingredients
- 1 whole pineapple
- 8 (12-inch) metal skewers
- 1 vanilla bean
- 8 ounces dark brown sugar, approximately 1 cup firmly packed
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- Pinch kosher salt
Directions
Notes
- Split open the vanilla pod and scrape out the pulp, and add the pod and the pulp to a small saucepan along with the brown sugar, lime juice, and salt. Whisk together and place the mixture over medium high heat and bring to a boil, stirring just until the sugar has dissolved.
- Remove from the heat and allow to sit for 2 hours before using. Remove the vanilla pod.
- Once cool, place the syrup in a squeeze bottle or other sealable container. Store in the refrigerator.
Pineapple
- Preheat grill on high.
- Peel and remove the core from the pineapple. Cut the pineapple into eighths, lengthwise, and remove any prickly brown eyes.
- Thread the pieces of pineapple onto the skewers lengthwise. Coat the skewered pineapple on all sides with the syrup. Grill on all sides until golden brown, approximately 4 minutes per side, 12 minutes total, or until the pineapple is tender. Serve with any remaining sauce.
