Pork & Pineapple

Pork & Pineapple

Guaranteed to wow! Big flavor. No stress.


— Main Ingredients —  
• Pork loin (not tenderloin!)
• Your favorite pork dry rub (we used Pork Mafia's Louisiana Bayou 🤌)
• Pineapple


— Side/Garnish —  
• Mixed greens — easy, clean, doubles as a side + garnish
• Rice (nice to have, not required)
• Thinly chopped chives — always a win with pork


— Equipment — 
• Pull Start Fire Grill
• Tongs
• Meat thermometer 
• Knife
• Cutting boards


— Timing —  
Prep:
5 minutes
Cook:
35 minutes

— Prepping Steps —

1. Start the Grill: 
• Pull the string and let the charcoal ignite and fully ash over.
(The grill runs ~3 hours, so no need to rush.)

2. Cut and season the pork: 
• Cut into ~2" thick sections
• Trim off the silver skin
• Season heavily on all sides

3. Cut the pineapple: 
• Slice into ~½" thick pieces and set aside


— Cooking Steps —

1.  Pork → Grill: 
• Once the grill is fully grey, place the pork on the grates
• Don’t worry about crowding the grill
• Let the first side sit longer to build a good crust, then rotate as needed

2. Temp check:
• Pull them off at 145°F internal
• Let them rest for 3 minutes before slicing

3. Pineapple → Grill:
• As the pork comes off, put the pineapple on
• Grill 1–2 minutes per side or until golden

4. Serve & enjoy!


— Notes —

If doing a tomahawk pork chop (highly recommend):
• Season all the way up the bone. The meat along the back of the bone will be the best bite off the grill.
