June is my birthday month, and here in Provo that means a trip to Tucanos. What is Tucanos? Only the most amazing Brazilian grill ever! Multiple servers come around with sizzling meats, vegetables, and fruit to slice right off the spit and onto your plate. Among the many delicious things served is grilled pineapple. It. Is. So good. So much that by the end of our meal, we turned away every meat-bearing server and waited until the grilled pineapple came around one last time. Only then would we leave.
The weeks after the Tucanos meal were absolutely miserably hot. Fires raged all around Utah County, the air was dead and still, and ash was literally falling out of the air. I mentioned it felt as if I were living in a BBQ grill, and my brother said that all we needed was some pineapple. And so it came to pass.
1 Pineapple, peeled and sliced into 1/4 - 1/2 inch rounds
Brown Sugar
Liquid Smoke
1. Pour 4-5 drops of liquid smoke on each slice of pineapple and rub it in with your fingers. Then sprinkle a pinch or two of brown sugar over the same side and spread.
2. Place pineapple, seasoned-side up, on the upper rack of the grill over medium heat. Grill for about 15 minutes, turning halfway through, until pineapple is juicy and tender.
Mahlzeit!
