Pineapple upside down cake in the D.O. (pics)

I made this dessert the other night as part of a larger cook. This thread- http://www.bbq-brethren.com/forum/showthread.php?t=232710

But seeing as we have a dessert throwdown going on I decided to make a post about just the cake. Here it is.

Made the cake in the dutch oven with some boxed yellow cake mix, canned pineapple rings and some cherries and brown sugar. I greased the D.O. with coconut oil to add a little bit more tropical flavor.

Cherries and pineapple


Added the brown sugar


Cake mix in and ready to cook


I was out of my Lazzari mesquite lump by this pint and had to use some RO I had in reserve. Not my first choice but it gets the job done. Sorry about all the other crap in the photo. Doing some work outside these days.



Done cooking! It took about 25min.




Garnished with some fresh pineapple and more cherries.






Served and ready to eat!


It didn't last too long. I must make another!

Thanks for looking.

Looks TASTEE but It stuck to the pot,use a little parchment paper to line the DO next time.Still looks yummy though!

I do this fairly frequently. Only sticks may one out of ten times. I don't like using the parchment. Don't like the way the edges come out. I like my odds the way they are. But to each his own.
