As we get closer to grilling season we've got some amazing ideas to start to share with you! Our first is from the grill straight to your heart with beautiful pineapples just in time for patio season!
We've have had plenty of time to experiment with new recipes on our TEC grills. Every meal and every occasion is the perfect time to get outside with the grill! From pancakes for breakfast to grilled peaches for our dessert, we’ve been having a wonderful time coming up with fun things to cook.
This week, we tried our hand with grilling a garnish for a handcrafted cocktail. We wanted to liven up our Pineapple Margarita recipe by adding in a punch of bold flavor with a grilled pineapple garnish. Turn up the heat on your TEC to get an excellent sear on your pineapple slices. A quick turn on the grill—about 4 minutes—is all this fruit needs in order to be ready to garnish your margarita.
