Ingredients
- 1 Pineapple cut into spears ½” thick
- 24 Slices Thick Bacon
- 1 cup Brown Sugar
- 1 cup Maple Syrup
Supplies:
- Toothpicks
Instructions
- Preheat a grill over medium heat and oil the grill grates so that the bacon does not stick to the grates.
- Wrap the bacon around a pineapple spear and secure it to the pineapple with a toothpick. Make sure that both sides of the bacon are secured so you may need to use 2 toothpicks.
- Place the bacon wrapped pineapple on the hot grill and grill for approximately 2-3 minutes on each side to brown the bacon.
- Then move the pineapple to indirect heat and cook for 5-7 minutes until the bacon is crispy.
- While the pineapple is cooking, stir together the brown sugar and maple syrup.
- Remove from the grill. Brush the pineapples with the maple syrup and brown sugar mixture immediately while warm. Serve warm and then enjoy!
Notes
A thicker bacon works the best in this recipe.
These are best served immediately but you can refrigerate the leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
