Swineapple Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat a grill or grill plate to medium-low heat.
• Sprinkle the paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, onion powder black pepper, and salt over the pineapple spears in a bowl. Mix until they are completely coated.
• Lay a slice of bacon at a slight diagonal angle on your work surface. Lay a second slice above it making sure they slightly overlapped in the middle.
• Place one hot dog and one thin pineapple spear near the bottom part of the first slice of bacon. Tuck the end of the bacon around the hot dog and pineapple and roll across the counter until they are completely encased. Use toothpicks if needed to get a tight seal.
• Place the hot dogs on the grill and cook gently until the bacon is crispy and the pineapple and hot dog are heated through, about 40 minutes. Flip halfway through.
• Place into hot dog buns, top with barbecue sauce, minced red onion, and minced jalapeño (optional).
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Chop the pork into large chunks and roll in the rub. Slice off the pineapple skin and hollow out the pineapple (remove the hard core) Stuff the pork into the pineapple. Rub some brown sugar into the outside of the pineapple and then wrap it entirely in bacon. Use toothpicks to keep the bacon in place. Cook in smoker or similar at 240-250 for 5 hours. Don't have a smoker? Wrap in foil, place in pan,and bake in oven at 250 for 3 and a half hours, then remove foil, turn up to 350 and roast for about an hour until the bacon is bronzed. If you want your bacon crispy, finish the swineapple off under the broiler for about 10-15 minutes, turning every few minutes so that you get even crispiness all over.
