Cooked Pineapple
Super easy
Cheap
Anyone can cook hotdogs and hamburgers on a portable grill. Here are some additional easy-to-prepare finger food favorites you might not have thought of, including zucchini squash, pineapple, apples, peaches, bananas, and sausages. If you are using BBQ briquets, be sure they have burned to a near solid white so that the heat is disbursed evenly. If you are using an electric grill, all recipes require a "medium" setting.

Ingredients
| Fresh sliced pineapple is good, but canned slices are easiest to take to the beach. |
| 1 cup sugar |
| 1 bag toasted coconut, shredded or flaked. |
Cooked Pineapple Directions
- Mix sugar and cinnamon together. Dip pineapple into cinnamon sugar mixture, grill to caramelize the sugar and then top with toasted coconut. Carefully sear both sides of each pineapple slice. Sprinkle each slice with toasted coconut. (The coconut can be toasted at home in a 400-degree oven. Monitor carefully until the coconut has browned. Coconut can be brought to the beach in a Ziploc bag.)
- Alternatively, bring a bottle of your favorite BBQ sauce and lightly brush it onto the pineapple while cooking. Delicious!
