Ingredients
- 5 5 5 cups pineapple large diced
- 1/2 1/2 1/2 cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1/2 1/2 1/2 cup white wine vinegar
- 1/4 1/4 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 2 2 cloves garlic

- 2 2 2 pounds shrimp, peeled and deveined
- 1/4 1/4 1/4 cup vegetable oil

Preparation
Step 1
Combine 2 cups of pineapple, brown sugar, vinegar, soy sauce and garlic in a blender on high until smooth. Pour into medium saucepan. Bring to boil over medium heat. Skim off any foam; reduce heat to low. Simmer until glaze is thick and syrupy enough to coast the back of a spoon and has reduced to about 3/4 cup.
Stir in cayenne. Set aside to cool slightly, at least 5 minutes.
Skewer 1 shrimp, making sure to pass the skewer through thick portion and tail portion. Then, skewer 1 piece of remaining pineapple. Repeat, alternating between shrimp and pineapple and leaving a space in between, until you have 3 shrimp and 2 pineapple pieces per skewer. Brush skewers on one side with glaze.
Place on grill and brush glaze on other side. Baste the shrimp and pineapple while cooking.
