Rum Infused, Grilled Pineapple with Coconut Topping.
Posted on 27 March 2009
With or without some homemade coconut ice cream, this one will surely be a huge hit at your next BBQ. Maybe it’s just a casual weekend “lime” with friends and you want to wow them with a simple but outstanding dessert.
You’ll need:
1 ripe pineapple
2-3 tablespoons of dark rum
1 teaspoon of granulated sugar
1/2 cup of whipped topping (try to avoid the canned stuff.. get some whipping cream and make your own – musch more tasty)
1/4 cup of shredded coconut.
Peel pineapple and cut crosswise into 6 slices. Place in a bowl and drizzle the rum and sugar over the slices. Mix around so every piece gets coated (would be nice to let it sit for about 3-5 minutes – covered so the rum does not evaporate). On a medium hot grill, place the slices for about 10 minutes, turning once. Remember to watch closely since the sugars can burn and become overly charred.
Top with the whipped cream and shredded coconut… feel free to add a nice heaping scoop of your favorite ice cream.

Hi Chris,
Do you have a recipe for coconut ice cream?
Am trilled to see this site, once I was watching the foodnetwork everyday Italian and Giada stewed chicken Trinidadian style for once our style of cooking was mentioned I was trilled keep up the good work.
Thanks for all your wonderful comments. keep them coming and be sure to spread the word on what I'm trying to achieve here.
Happy Cooking.
Chris…
p.s. Liza. Though I didn't see that episode, I'm a huge fan of Giada and did see it mentioned online that she cooked stew chicken (close enough to our way). BTW, 2 of our daughters pretend they are Giada and Barefoot Contessa (Ina Garten) when they cook.

Looks yummy Chris!
Thanks.
Looks good.
Hi chris, I'm from louisiana and a newcomer to cooking caribbean food, recently met a friend who lives in tobago so it's exciting to prepare meals from trinidad & tobago. The only thing is that I don't know any store in the area that sales all the ingredients you use. I recently found a website called Sam's caribbean online which the store is actually in New York where i could purchurse things and have them delivered via mail. Thanks for your step by step pictures and finished meal. Everything you post seems absolutely delicious.
Most grocery stores have alot of the ingredients you need for Carribean cooking..What is it that you are ordering from the website?
Enjoying your recipes. Thanks
Hi Chris,
I have made most of your recipes and they were very good.
I really love the caribbean black and i love to make it some day .
So since Christmas is around the corner i was wondering if you have a good black cake recipe to share.
chris i tried the pelau recipe it was delicious…………. I was wondering do u hav a recipe for red velvet cake
Chris I buy frozen grated coconut for my sweetbread in the states. I normally get it from the phillipino groceries. I recently found one made by GOYA in a regular grocery. It is not sweetened like the one used in baking, so it is perfect and already moist so no pre soaking required. Try it and tell me what you think.
Hi Chris thank you for sending these wonderful recipes including this one .You really enjoy cooking ! I plan to try some of them in my spare time. Keep up the good work
Hi Chris
Ellen would like to know if you have a recipe for pineapple salad dressed with corriander.
I always wanted to make this.
My email add: queenie1492000@yahoo.com
Thank You for all the recipes that you send me.
Dramatic variation on this recipe which is a great family favourite when entertaining and can use either pineapple or bananas.
1 medium pineapple (skinned and cut into 8 slices lengthwise) or 4 large bananas (cut in half lengthwise)
1 oz butter
1 tablespoons brown sugar
3-4 tablespoons rum
In a saute pan (frying pan at least 3 inches deep with a long handle) large enough to saute all of the fruit at once, melt the butter and cook the fruit in the melted butter until it softens and starts to brown a little at the edges, turning once. Sprinkle on the brown sugar and allow to start melting. Pour on the rum and allow to heat. Remove from heat and light rum with a match. You should have a pan of dessert with blue flames which you can take in to a hot mat on you dinner table. Looks fab. Serve with double cream. Absolutely yummy. Serves 4.
i grilled the pineapples before but not with rum i got to try that one
Hi Chris
Gr8 recipe. Next time you can try toasting the shredded coconut to bring out d flavour.
Keep up the good work

Hi Chris, All your recipes look absolutely great. I like the way you put the step by step pictures, from ingredients to finished products. It really helps in knowing how the dish is supposed to look .
I've recently picked some giant zucchinis and it's quite intimidating to look at. I am looking for ways to cook them. Any ideas? I've roasted some with olive oil salt and pepper and they were great.
The recipes are awesome, I am hooked, the comment you make about your childhood and the food reminds me so much of my childhood in the islands, the koolaide with the stains on my uniform, the vendors living next door to the school, the tamarind and the tamarnd balls were and still is a hit for me. My month is watering just seeing the recipe. LOL. I can now make lots of carribbean recipes.
thank you your detailed cooking pot off or on is very important little tricks tips go a long way makes the dish , the machine that makes shoe string potatos I cannot find in montreal do you Chris ?? let me know what you think lily

Hi Chris, first let me say may the good Lord Almighty bless you and enlarge your territory may his hand be with you to keep you and direct you . For all that you've done and about to do in the lives of people who can and cannot cook I must say the your free EBook is incredible, remarkable and well worth it. Your heart is in the cooking and your bless my heart with your simplified methods. You remind me of Sylvia Hunte how I miss her cooking but now faith has it you have filled her shoes. I don't care who has negatives to say but you are a true and blessed CHEF OF THE CARIBBEAN MAY YOU BE CATAPULTED INTO GREATNESS BY THE SPIRIT OF THE LIVING GOD.
Oh this is defiantly one to use to impress the Gus's
