You don't use pineapple itself -- you use the juice. The acidity of the juice breaks down the fibers of the meat.... This is only recommended, by the way, for meats that will be in sauces that are relatively sweek.
Fresh Pineapple Juice also contains the enzyme Bromelain this enzyme breaks down some of the connective tissue (collagen) as well as the acid breaking down the myofibril which is the motor unit in the muscle itself.
