While the pork was smoking, I cut up a fresh pineapple into circles, and held back a 1/2 cup of pineapple to go in the rum & pineapple barbeque sauce. I stumbled onto this recipe while browsing Koloa Rum's Instagram feed from Sunday night. While I don't have any Koloa Rum in the house, I did substitute with a nice Rhum Barbancourt 8-year old rum from Haiti. The remaining pineapple was placed on the grill for 30 minutes after I removed the meat.

Rum & Pineapple BBQ sauce from Koloa Rum
1/4 cup dark rum (I used Rhum Barbancourt 8 year)
3/4 cup ketchup
1/2 cup fresh pineapple
1/2 Tb mustard (we used dijon)
1 clove garlic
2 Tb Worcestershire Sauce
1 Tb vinegar (Apple Cider Vinegar)
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1 Tb Maple Syrup
1/3 cup water
Mix ingredients in blender and pulse to desired consistency. Pour into small sauce pan and bring to a boil, allowing the sauce to cook down and darken in color. Pour into a mason jar and enjoy (will keep 3-4 days).
Allison prefers spicy barbeque sauce, so we ordered a squeeze bottle of Pork Barrel original BBQ sauce along with our sides. I thought the Koloa recipe turned out pretty awesome, and I'll be using this with the leftovers this week.
Pork Barrel's cool cucumber salad and potato salad accompanied the tacos as sides, along with fresh corn on the cob, refried beans & cheese.
