1
Prepare the Pineapple
Cut the fresh pineapple into thick rings, about 1/2 inch thick. Remove the core from each ring.
2
Season the Pineapple
Brush both sides of the pineapple rings with olive oil and season with salt and black pepper.
3
Cook the Bacon
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crispy. Remove from skillet and drain on paper towels.
4
Grill the Pineapple
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Place the pineapple rings on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until grill marks appear and the pineapple is slightly caramelized.
5
Add BBQ Sauce
During the last minute of grilling, brush the pineapple rings with BBQ sauce to glaze them.
6
Assemble the Dish
Remove the grilled pineapple from the grill and top each ring with a crispy bacon strip. Drizzle additional BBQ sauce on top if desired.
