Grilled Pineapple

1/2 pineapple, cut in wedges
1 T rum

Marinade
2 T honey
1 T olive oil
1 T lime juice
1 t ground cinnamon
1 t ground cloves (or about 20 whole cloves)

Prepare pineapple by cutting off the crown, base and skin. Remove eyes and core and cut pineapple into four wedges. Cut each wedge in half. Thread onto wood or metal skewers.

For marinade, combine all marinade ingredients above. Brush onto the pineapple pieces and grill for about five minutes on each side, basting with any remaining marinade. Remove from grill and brush with rum. Serve hot or warm (you can wrap them in foil until ready to serve). Slice to serve.

Comments: This is a very delicious summer side dish, super easy too. You could easily double the recipe to use the entire pineapple, or snack on the other half. Ground cloves are easier, but whole cloves work ok too.
