Grilled Pineapple Slices

Saturday at our place we had our annual pre-cinco de mayo cookout. We had some good food brought by everyone, and I brought out my SWEET new Pineapple Slicer.

I found it on Amazon, and check it out:

It looks like a crazy corkscrew!



Um, how awesome does this look?

It's super easy to use. Chop off the head of the pineapple, and then stick the corkscrew in and twist it and once you get as much as you want, just pull it out (lots of "that's what she said" going on in that sentence). You can use the pineapple slices for anything; eating as is, putting in a punch, grilling, etc. Then you can use the shell as a cup for your drink (obv the whole reason to buy this!).

So I made 3 "pineapple cups" - but one was a little dip and leaked, so we used that to hold our straws. The other 2 we used as cups for my Roomster and I. We put umbrellas in the pineapples, and I eventually filled mine full of Varun's homemade Sangria.
Perfect drink for a hot day!

I took the insides of the cups and used this DELICIOUS Recipe:

Sorry, no picture of this, they went to fast! They were a GREAT snack! It tasted like candy, but not super sweet. Throw that on a burger, or a kabob for a sweet taste!!
