I was tooling around online and I read about a thing called a "Swineapple", which is pork tenderloin
16+
(or other cuts) put into a skinned and cored pineapple which is wrapped in bacon, then the whole
17+
thing grilled; I just had to give it a shot, so I roped Cora into helping me
18+
19+
![Ingredients](ingredients.jpg){: lqip='ingredients.lqip.jpg' }
20+
21+
First, we need a whole pineapple, some pork, and a pack of bacon.
22+
23+
![Coring](coring-pineapple.jpg){: lqip='coring-pineapple.lqip.jpg' }
24+
25+
Cut the top off the pineapple, peel the skin off, and then core the inside to leave a cavity for
26+
the pork.
27+
28+
![Pork laid out](pork-laid-out.jpg){: lqip='pork-laid-out.lqip.jpg' }
29+
30+
Slice the pork into long strips, then stuff them into the pineapple.
31+
32+
![Bacon weave](bacon-weave.jpg){: lqip='bacon-weave.lqip.jpg' }
33+
34+
Now create the bacon weave by ... uh ... weaving the bacon together into a mat.
35+
36+
![Prepped](prepped.jpg){: lqip='prepped.lqip.jpg' }
37+
38+
Wrap the pineapple in the bacon weave, pinning it in place with some toothpicks
39+
40+
![On display](on-display.jpg){: lqip='on-display.lqip.jpg' }
41+
42+
While this part isn't _necessary_, it certainly helps the display. Tack the pineapple top
43+
back onto the rest using toothpicks. Now grill over medium heat for 45 min-an hour until
44+
the pork is done (you can use a meat thermometer, but make sure you get it into the pork, not
45+
just the pineapple).
46+
47+
![Grilling](grilling.jpg){: lqip='grilling.lqip.jpg' }
48+
49+
When it's finished cooking, it's gonna look nice and brown; slice it into disks like the post preview
50+
photo and you're done!
51+

Hope you enjoy your own, if you make one. Thanks for reading!
