Whiskey kissed grilled Pineapple upside down cake. This classic is so well loved by many. Grilling the pineapple ahead of time makes them sweeter & softer. This recipe makes two 8-9” cast iron pans filled with goodness.
Prepare yellow cake mix according to package directions and set aside.
Preheat grill to 450F. Grill pineapple slices for 10-15 minutes, turning a couple of times, until lightly charred and softened. Then, reduce the grill heat to 375F.
Divide the melted butter evenly between two 8-9” cast iron pans (6 tbsp in each) and ensure the bottom of each pan is completely coated. Sprinkle 1/2 cup of brown sugar into each pan, spreading it evenly. Pour 5oz of whiskey over the brown sugar in each pan.
Arrange the grilled pineapple slices into each pan, then add the maraschino cherries.
Carefully and slowly pour half of the prepared cake batter over the pineapples and cherries in each pan.
Bake on the Traeger Grills for 35-40 minutes or until lightly golden. Then, cover each pan with foil and bake for an additional 20 minutes.
Remove from the grill and remove the foil. Let rest for 15 minutes, then carefully place a plate over each pan and flip to invert the cake. Repeat for the second cake.
Cool slightly and serve with whipped cream.
