1 hour 20 min
This is so easy and guests love it. The brandy adds a special flavour, though rum works well too. Quite nice with ice cream or sorbet.

- Combine honey, brandy, lemon juice and nutmeg in a glass dish or bowl. Mix together and add pineapple; coat well with marinade. Cover dish and marinate in refrigerator for about an hour.
- Preheat bbq to medium heat and lightly oil cooking grate.
- Remove pineapple from dish or bowl, reserving leftover marinade. Place pineapple slices directly on cooking grate or in a basket and barbecue for about 10 minutes, turning, until pineapple is hot and caramelised. Serve pineapple drizzled with remaining marinade.
Serving ideas
Take the pineapple and place on top of ice cream, then drizzle with the marinade. Or, make something like a millefeuille by baking some ready made puff pastry that's cut in squares. layer with the pineapple slices (cut them thinly for this and reduce cooking time) and whipped cream or creme fraiche.
