Pineapple (abacaxi) is native to South America, and has been a part of the indigenous diet for centuries. The practice of grilling or roasting fruits, including pineapple, likely stems from traditional cooking methods used by indigenous populations to enhance flavor and preservation. The introduction of European culinary techniques further influenced the evolution of the dish, leading to variations that incorporate spices and other flavorings. Its modern popularity reflects a blend of indigenous tradition and culinary adaptation.

Abacaxi Assado offers a delightful balance of sweet, tangy, and smoky flavors.
The sweetness of the pineapple is intensified through the roasting process, caramelizing the natural sugars and creating a rich, concentrated flavor. The tangy acidity of the fruit provides a refreshing contrast, preventing the dish from becoming overly sweet. Depending on the preparation, smoky notes are imparted from the grill or oven, adding depth and complexity. Spices like cinnamon, cloves, or chili powder may be used to further enhance the flavor profile. Some versions also incorporate coconut flakes, brown sugar, or even a drizzle of honey for extra sweetness and texture.

Pineapple Selection
Choose a pineapple that is ripe but firm. Look for a golden-yellow color and a sweet aroma at the base. Avoid pineapples that are overly soft or have brown spots.
Grilling vs. Roasting
Grilling provides a smoky flavor and distinct grill marks. Roasting in the oven offers more consistent cooking and caramelization, but without the smokiness. Both methods are acceptable, depending on preference.
Spice it Up
Experiment with different spices to customize the flavor. Cinnamon, cloves, nutmeg, and chili powder are all excellent additions. Consider adding a touch of brown sugar or honey for extra sweetness.
Prevent Burning
To prevent the pineapple from burning, especially on the grill, brush it with oil or melted butter before cooking. Turn frequently to ensure even cooking and prevent scorching.
