Pork XXL with Pineapple

Packed with irresistible sweet and sour flavors this recipe is the best way to bring some tropical mood into your day. Fresh pineapple is used to tenderize pig before grilling as part of a traditional luau feast in Hawaii, where the sweet-savory combo has its origins. Bromelain, an enzyme found in raw pineapple, breaks down protein, making it ideal for tenderizing meat of all kinds. As a result, pig and pineapple are a match made in heaven.
