CARAMEL GRILLED PINEAPPLE SUNDAES



Caramel Grilled Pineapple Sundaes image

Okay, so I know that we really cheated on the sauce by using a jarred sauce, but this is exactly what we served to some guests for a last minute dessert after a meal of "Brats--Our Way" and grilled corn on the cob, and they loved it! For four adults and two small children, this really was just barely enough, and we could have probably eaten another pineapple. I noticed that most other pineapple recipes here involve marinating the pineapple or brushing it with something just before grilling. We've never tried that, but really enjoy the simple, fresh taste of the pineapple without other added ingredients. If you've never tried grilled pineapple, you owe it to your tastebuds to try one of the recipes for it here on the zaar!

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 pineapple (fresh and ripe)
1 (10 ounce) jar caramel ice cream topping (You will have plenty left)
1 quart vanilla ice cream (also, you'll have some left)

Steps:

  • Peel, core, and slice pineapple into 3/4 inch to 1 inch thick rings. If your pineapple is already cored and sliced in a way that makes it impossible to cut into rings, just cut into big wedges. Pieces that are cut too small make it difficult to grill without losing pieces in the grill, as the pineapple will soften somewhat.
  • Grill on a lightly oiled BBQ grill grate over medium to high heat, turning once, until the pineapple has nice grill marks, is warm, and slightly softened. Time will vary depending on your grill, but your eyes and your nose will tell you when it's ready!
  • Warm caramel ice cream topping in microwave according to package directions.
  • Assemble sundaes by placing a portion of pineapple in the bottom of each bowl. Top with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream, end drizzle a large spoonful of warm caramel topping over the top, and serve immediately.
  • Enjoy the compliments from your guests.
  • Grin as they ooooh and aahhhh over what a genius you are! :).

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pineapples: Look for pineapples that are heavy for their size and have a golden yellow color. Avoid pineapples that are green or have soft spots.
  • Grill the pineapple slices over medium heat: This will help to caramelize the sugars in the pineapple and give it a slightly smoky flavor.
  • Use a variety of toppings: Grilled pineapple sundaes can be topped with a variety of ingredients, such as ice cream, whipped cream, nuts, and chocolate chips. Get creative and experiment with different combinations to find your favorite.
  • Serve grilled pineapple sundaes immediately: Grilled pineapple sundaes are best served immediately after they are made. The pineapple will start to wilt and lose its flavor if it sits for too long.
