Here you go CRG I think this is what you want. I may buy this myself but still looking.

CRG, this one should REALLY core your pineapple: http://www.amazon.com/Paderno-World-Cuisine-Pineapple-Peeler/dp/B001HL0I6W/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&s=home-garden&qid=1265834948&sr=8-10

Thanks Tommy. Appreciate the info.

My wife is ordering one for my birthday I think, if I get it I'll be sure to post how good or bad it is.

Re you getting the one that cores and peels, but does not slice?

Yes,  this one. http://www.fantes.com/pineapple.html
I want to work with a whole pineapple and not deal with a sliced one.  I think it's the one she is looking at (I hope) I did show her the site and even gave a lot of hints so I should know on 2/20.

I even have an idea with the skin, but I'll leave that for another day. ;)

Look at the "Grill Ring" about 3/4 of the way down the page.

That would help with the end not being cooked. The grill ring would be neat to have and increase the heat to one side for sure, the bacon would have to cook better.

I "fryed 3 chickens yesterday in TBE and man were they good!

I took a chicken beer can holder and cut off the top ring and bent the 3 prongs with about an inch to make 3 feet.

Used my turkey fryer with the beer can holder and it is the perfect height.

All 3 chicken were done at 168* IT. Got them darlings in the zone.

I need to get a turkey holder, the spit rod I have does work great but does not hold large birds very well.   Do you have a picture of you holder?   I would also think it would hold a pineapple in place right?

[classicrockgriller]

I think it would would work on a pineapple if it were cored.

I took a beer can chicken holder and cut off the top ring.



Bent the three wires equal amounts.



Then took my Turkey deep fry holder



And put my chicken on another beer can rack and slide it on the Turkey holder.



Put the beer can holder feet down in the BE and set the Turkey Rack on top.

[TMB]

The turkey holder might work if it will let a pineapple slide down enough to cook and not rip it apart. 

I think you have a good idea there for sure. I really need to get me a holder.

[classicrockgriller]

Tommy when I put all this in the BE the top of the Turkey holder is just low enough to let me put the BE lid on.

The top of thechicken rest about an inch or so below the top of the Turkey rack.

And it is very stable in the BE.

[classicrockgriller]

Question.

Have you ever put a hard cover lid over the BE or would it blow up?
