These are my favorite version of this popular appetizer. The addition of pineapple adds a nice sweetness. These appetizers are always the first to go whenever I serve them. I've had good look pre-baking them and serving them warm in a crock-pot or just reheating in the microwave if you want to make them ahead of time.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe pineapple: Look for pineapples with a deep golden yellow color and a slightly sweet smell. Avoid pineapples that are too green or have brown spots.
  • Use thick-cut bacon: Thick-cut bacon will provide a better wrapper for the pineapple and will cook more evenly.
  • Soak the skewers in water before using: This will help to prevent the skewers from burning.
  • Cook the pineapple over medium heat: This will help to prevent the bacon from burning and will allow the pineapple to cook through.
  • Baste the pineapple with the teriyaki sauce: This will help to add flavor and moisture to the pineapple.
  • Serve the pineapple immediately: Bacon-wrapped pineapple is best served hot and fresh.
