PINEAPPLE HONEY GRILLED KEY WEST SHRIMP
My version of a recipe found online. I love grilled pineapple and this went great with my toasted coconut rice pilaf and spice rubbed grilled chicken! The shrimp was tender and juicy! If using wooden skewers make sure you soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes. You could add some crushed red pepper or hot sauce to the marinade for some kick:-0

CHILI-LIME GRILLED PINEAPPLE
I love grilled pineapple. This recipe combines the fruit's natural sweetness with the tart and spicy flavors of lime and chili powder. It's great for dessert and even as a side dish with ham or pork chops. -Geraldine Saucier, Albuquerque, New Mexico

GRILLED PINEAPPLE WITH KEY LIME AND AGAVE NECTAR
From Melissas.com with a few minor changes. It is certainly okay to substitute canned pineapple, just be sure the pineapple is packed in its own juice with no added sugar.

Steps:
- In a small bowl, combine agave nectar, grape seed oil, key lime juice plus the zest, either the nutmeg or cinnamon and the rum (if using).
- Cut each pineapple half lengthwise into 4 long wedges. Cut each wedge in half crosswise. You will have sixteen pieces total.
- Prepare grill (medium heat). Lightly brush pineapple with marinade and grill on a rack set about 6 inches over glowing coals.
- Turn; brush other side with the marinade and grill until tender and golden, approximately 5 minutes each side. Note: due to the sugar content in the marinade, the pineapple could easily burn. Watch grilling process carefully.
- Oven method: Pineapple may also be broiled by placing 4 inches below broiler in oven for about 10 minutes; turning occasionally until lightly browned. Brush with rum and sprinkle with lime peel. Serve hot or warm. Note: I used a grill pan so that the pineapple wedges would have the "grill marks".
