Grilled Ham and Pineapple Teriyaki Kabobs

Grilled, Kabobs, Teriyaki

Grilled Ham and Pineapple Teriyaki Kabobs are so easy to whip out. It is the perfect meal for those days when you need to hurry and get dinner on the table before you are off to your next activity. You don’t even have to heat up your house. There is just something about grilled food that makes the flavor pop even more.

I made these kabobs with Sweet Baby Ray’s BBQ Sauce and also with my Teriyaki Sauce. I loved them both ways. It really is personal preference.

These Grilled Ham and Pineapple Teriyaki Kabobs are a great way to use up that left over ham that you have no idea what to do with. Just simply cut it up, stick some wooden skewers through the ham along with some pineapple chunks. Then slather some sauce on it and throw it on the grill. And walha, you have a delicious meal that only took minutes to put together.
