Grilled Pineapple

Directions

1. 1
   Prepare a grill for medium heat.
2. 2
   Cut the pineapple in half lengthwise from the very top to the bottom (keeping the leaves on).
3. 3
   Then cut each half lengthwise in half again, so you have 4 long pieces with leaves at one end.
4. 4
   Add the jelly, brown sugar, butter, cinnamon and salt to a medium saucepan over medium-low heat.
5. 5
   Cook, stirring, until the mixture is fully combined and liquid.
6. 6
   Brush the pineapple with some of the mixture (reserve the remaining mixture), transfer to the grill and grill 3 to 4 minutes per side.
7. 7
   Remove to a platter and, using a sharp knife, cut the bottom ends off each piece of pineapple.
8. 8
   Then, carefully cut lengthwise from the bottom to the top of each piece along the skin (separating the fruit from the skin), and then crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
9. 9
   Drizzle the remaining apricot mixture over the pineapple.
10. 10
    Serve with vanilla ice cream.
