RUM SOAKED GRILLED PINEAPPLE #RECIPE @VMBurns

 VMBURNS: It's July and for weeks on, but the burgers needed to have cooked longer. July 4th I made Chili Lime Chicken Tacos and Grilled Pineapple Salsa. YUM! A friend gave me a tip and suggested I buy a grill mat. OMG! That was a life changer. I got the lovely grill marks, and cleanup was a breeze! Anyway, on July 6th I found a recipe on Cheff Recipe for Cilantro Lime Chicken and it was delish. Don't have a grill? You can fry, bake, or air fry. However, I highly recommend the grill if you have one. I forgot the cilantro in the first photo.

RUM SOAKED GRILLED PINEAPPLE 

 

INGREDIENTS 

• 1 Pineapple
• 1/2 Cup rum
• 1/2 Cup Brown sugar
• 1 Teaspoon ground cinnamon
• 1 Teaspoon Vanilla 

• INSTRUCTIONS

1. Combine the rum, brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla in a bowl.
   
2. Slice the pineapple into rings and remove the core. (FYI - I used my apple corer)
   
3. Place the pineapple rings into a baking dish and then pour the rum mixture over the pineapples. Toss to make sure the pineapple is coated well, then place in the fridge. 
   
4. Pour the liquid into a saucepan and heat.
5. Grill the pineapple rings for approximately 2 minutes. I use a grill mat for easy cleanup but if you don't, you will probably need to use a little cooking spray to keep the pineapples from sticking.
6. Flip the rings and grill for 1-2 minutes.
   
7. Place the grilled pineapples in a bowl and add a scoop of vanilla ice cream and drizzle with the warm rum sauce.

• On the shores of Lake Michigan, influencer Maddy Montgomery has turned the bakery she inherited from her great aunt Octavia into a destination. There’s just one thing she won’t post: the body in the freezer . . .
• 
  
• Thanks to Maddy’s social media savvy, Baby Cakes Bakery is becoming a huge success—so much so that she’s attracted the attention of her former nemesis, the fiancé-stealing Brandy Denton. When Brandy blows into New Bison like an ill wind and disrupts a vlog Maddy’s filming, their argument goes viral. After Brandy’s body is found in the freezer at Baby Cakes, Maddy instantly goes from viral sensation to murder suspect.
• 
  
• AS Maddy is still reeling from the murder, a stranger shows up in the bakery claiming to have been a friend of Octavia. He believes Maddy is in danger. When a second body washes up on the lake shore, it seems clear someone’s out to kill to keep a secret—and it may have to do with her great aunt.

Maddy rallies her aunt’s friends, the Baker Street Irregulars; Sheriff April Johnson; and her veterinarian boyfriend Michael—not to mention her English mastiff Baby—to do some digging and root out whoever’s behind the killings. . .
