1 cup of roasted onion flavored croutons

1/4 cup packed brown sugar
1/4 cup pineapple ice cream topping
To Assemble:
Mix all but the last three ingredients together and form a log. If you are super sizing, form a ring in the bottom of the dutch oven to shorten cooking time.
Keep all of the cheese on the inside of the log, by pushing the blocks back inside when visible
Place into the center of the dutch oven.
Place the dutch oven over 6 -8 evenly placed coals and place 13-15 more evenly spaced coals on top of the lid. Rotate the oven and lid separately every 15 minutes to keep the heat as even as possible. Cook for 45 minutes and check to see if the meat is almost done. If not continue cooking until the meat is nearly done checking every 5 minutes.
When the meat is ready, remove as much of the grease as possible. And brush all the sides with the 3 remaining ingredients mix and continue cooking for 15 minutes with just the coals on top.
