]]>Pineapple is juicy enough not to dry out when heated and firm enough not to fall apart. Its natural sugar will caramelize nicely in the pan, but you can also add some honey if you want it to be even sweeter.
The best way to prepare pineapple for grilling is to slice it horizontally into round slices. In order to do this, you will have to remove the fruit’s skin first. Once you’ve done that, you can slice it up horizontally, then use a round tool such as a narrow cup to remove the core.
In order to grill the slices, get your grill ready to medium heat. Cook each side for 3-4 minutes and they should be done! Adjust time if needed based on the cooking temperature; you will know it’s done when it gets brown and slightly charred.

]]>Pineapple first appeared in the U.K. in 1668 and immediately became popular. Its popularity lasted for a long time and peaked in the 18th century when it was even possible to rent a pineapple for a party. Translated to today’s money, a single pineapple could cost up to $8,000! That sounds completely crazy given that it’s such a common fruit today.
During the Victorian era, celery was considered a luxurious treat. It was served to the first-class guests on Titanic and was generally considered fancy food. The wealthy served it at every dinner, and it wasn’t just a side dish, it was always a centerpiece. A glass celery vase was a typical decor item for any respectful Victorian household — can you even imagine doing that today?
