   Clean and cut your pineapple into 1/2 inch slices. You could use something like a pineapple corer/slicer to do the work for you, but this may anger the gods.

3. 3

   Preheat your grill to medium-high, about 425 degrees. Clean and oil your grates, and place the pineapple over direct heat. It is super, super important that you do not overcook the pineapple – that will lead to moisture loss, and the moisture is what we’re after! We just want to caramelize the sugars as much as possible, so as soon as the pineapple is ready to be flipped, flip it. When you start to smell an almost molasses-like sweetness, they’re done.

   Set the pineapple in a colander set over a bowl —some juice will release after cooking. After the fruit has cooled, blend until smooth, strain and chill for at least one hour.
