Broiled Pineapple Rings are a superb dessert on their own or as a side dish to a bowl of ice cream. Either way, they are so good. I have also served them as a side dish for grilled gammon. They add a lovely freshness and moistness to the dish, not to forget the divine sweetness. I also save the juice from the canned pineapple slices to pour over the dessert as an added texture. Also the juice comes in handy when making a Pina Colada. I have also used these as a topping on pizzas and to spice up a boring ham sandwich.
