- Once corn is slightly charred, remove and (once cooled) cut off the charred kernels from the cob.

Notes
- Feel free to simply sear your pineapple and corn in a cast iron skillet, if desired. Heat skillet to high heat, at a drizzle of olive oil to the pan and then add pineapple. Sear on both sides. Remove from pan and add a bit more olive oil. Add corn kernels to pan and move around until they start to char.
- Whole30/Paleo: omit the corn to make this Whole30/Paleo compatible.
