Pineapple goodness!

Very tasty. It is a little bit more time-consuming than I would like, but the taste more than makes up for it. Also, I have found that no matter fully melt. As a slight alteration, I make white rice and double the basting mixture. After I baste the chicken and pineapple I add a little pineapple juice to the mixture and pour it over the rice. Delicious!
