I let this recipe cook for over an hour. It reduced by half and never got to the syrup like consistency that the recipe called for. I'm giving it 2 stars for tasting delicious, but it gets no more than that.

Unable to provide in detail on how to make this sauce perfectly due to Food Networks limit of 1000 characters and I have about 1250.
So, don't use as much water and thicken after 5 or 10 minutes with arrowroot or corn starch. Add some extra fruits if you want.
Sorry I can't provide all details.

Hey montreal...it's called Rate AND REVIEW...WHERE'S your review??? No one knows WHY you only gave it ONE star?????
THANKS, Sunnyvale, your review was helpful...I'll make sure to pack the brown sugar well and try and get excess water out of my pineapple! Maybe if you cooked it slightly higher than a simmer...a nice bubbling, maybe then it would "thicken" more like a syrup? I'll try that. Thanks again for your review!

I followed the directions exactly, and even after simmering for over half an hour, it never reached the syrupy consistency I was hoping for. I wonder what went wrong??? Pineapple too watery, maybe? Or perhaps I needed to pack the brown sugar more firmly? I'm not sure. In any case, it tastes fabulous and I can't wait to put it on my cheesecake!
