This dish sounds absolutely delicious I can't wait to try this with some grilled chicken. While I did not see a picture of this dish -- I'd be willing to bet the presentation is beautiful. You could easily make this on a stove-top grill pan vs. the outdoor grill.

In a small saucepan, melt the butter over very low heat. Add the brown sugar, stir well to combine, and remove from heat. Grill the pineapple rounds over medium-high heat until nicely browned, 2-3 minutes per side. During the last minute of cooking, brush the top sides liberally with the butter-sugar glaze. Remove from the grill and cut each round into eighths.
