Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the grill by preheating it to medium-high heat, around 400°F (200°C), ensuring the grates are clean.
  2. In a small mixing bowl, combine 1/2 cup of brown sugar, 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Stir until fully incorporated.
  3. Peel, core, and cut the fresh pineapple into wedges, about 1-inch thick. Coat each wedge with the brown sugar mixture.
  4. Place the sugar-coated pineapple wedges on the grill and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until golden grill marks appear.
  5. Remove the wedges from the grill and serve warm, optionally with vanilla ice cream.
