Long weekends are made for sunshine, good company... and eating more watermelon than seems reasonable.
In honor of the long weekend, we're sharing our favorite summer duo: watermelon and pineapple.
Watermelon and pineapple, the easy way:
Cut the watermelon into wedges and the pineapple into chunks, sprinkle with a generous pinch of salt and—stay with us—a little freshly ground black pepper. It sounds questionable. It tastes surprisingly brilliant.
Pineapple, the weekend upgrade:
Peel, core, and slice into ½-inch rounds. Marinate for about an hour in:
- ⅓ cup brown sugar
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ cup dark rum
Grill for about 3 minutes per side until caramelized and lightly charred.
Now all that's left is finding a sunny spot to enjoy it.
Happy Long Weekend!
