Ingredients
- Pineapple
- 1 ripe, peeled, cored, and cut into 1/2 inch thick slices or wedges
- Honey
- 2 tablespoons
- Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons
- Cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Lime juice
- 2 tablespoons, freshly squeezed

Instructions
- Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, ensuring the grates are clean and well-oiled to prevent sticking.

- Brush the pineapple slices generously with honey on both sides, then sprinkle the brown sugar-cinnamon mixture evenly over the slices.
