About

It might be surprising to hear, but pineapple is actually a really great accompaniment to barbeques and cookouts; the distinct texture and tropical sweetness offer a refreshing contrast to the savory flavor of burgers and marinated chicken. Paradise Pineapples decides to lean into this unusually delicious pairing by soaking the pineapple in brown sugar, infusing the fruit with a smoky sweetness that melds with barbeque sauces. Then Paradise Pineapples are grilled to unlock more of their distinct tangy flavor and give them beautiful, distinct grill marks. You can enjoy these slices of paradise on their own or as a new topping to hamburgers and steaks, but either way, they'll soon be a feature in your cookouts!
