Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 large fresh pineapple
1/2 c rum
1/2 c orange marmalade
3/4 c brown sugar
6 Tbsp butter
2 tsp vanilla
1/4 tsp ground chipotle pepper
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

Steps:

  • 1. Peel, core, and cut pineapple into 3/4-1 inch slices.
  • 2. In a small saucepan mix together the rum, marmalade, brown sugar, butter, vanilla, chipotle pepper, and cinnamon. Note: Use 1/2 teaspoon of chipotle pepper for an added 'Kick'n Dance Step' if you wish.
  • 3. Heat and stir until the sugar is dissolved.
  • 4. On a pre-heated "hot" grill lightly oil the grill. Place pineapple slices on the grill.
  • 5. With a basting brush, baste the pineapple slices with the 'Danc'n Orange' glaze while grilling.
  • 6. Turn the slices over and baste the other side. Note: The recipe for the glaze/basting sauce is enough to handle the grilling of '3' fresh pineapples.
  • 7. Continue basting and turning over the pineapple slices occasionally; grilling for 10-15 minutes.
  • 8. Remove slices from the grill and paint some more glaze on them.
  • 9. Leave rings whole or cut each slice/ring in half and serve.
  • 10. For a dessert, serve hot with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.
