Bacon Bbq Pineapple Spread Food

SWINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Prepare a grill for medium indirect heat: For a gas grill (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes turn off one of the middle burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium. For a charcoal grill, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
• Slice off the top and bottom of the pineapple with a sharp knife and set the pieces aside. Remove the peel from the pineapple, cutting it off in strips. Using a paring knife, carefully hollow out the pineapple to a 3/4-inch-thick shell.
• Stuff the pineapple with the ribs. Place the top and bottom pieces back on the pineapple and secure them in place with 4 long bamboo skewers.
• Place a large piece of parchment on your work surface. Arrange 6 slices bacon horizontally on the parchment. The edges of the slices should touch but not overlap. Working with the remaining 6 slices, weave the bacon in an over-under pattern by lifting alternating slices of the horizontal bacon and vertically placing a slice of bacon over or under as needed to create a woven lattice design. Wrap the bacon lattice around the pineapple and secure it in place with 8 long bamboo skewers. Trim the protruding skewer tips down to 1/2 inch lengths with kitchen shears.
• Put the swineapple on the grill over the drip pan with the bacon seam-side down. Cover the grill and cook until the bacon is crispy and golden brown and the meat is hot in the center, about 1 hour. Transfer to a cutting board. Remove the skewers and slice the pineapple into rings for serving.

BACON WRAPPED PINEAPPLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Wrap each chunk of pineapple with a piece of bacon and secure with toothpicks. Place in a shallow baking dish. In a small bowl, stir together the brown sugar, mayonnaise and chili sauce; pour over the bacon wrapped pineapple.
• Bake uncovered for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, until bacon is crispy on the edges and the sauce is bubbly. Serve warm.

CHEESY BACON BBQ CHICKEN

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400˚F.
• Thinly slice the onion and place it in the bottom of a casserole dish.
• Combine the salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder and season both sides of the chicken. Lay the chicken on top of the onions.
• Spread the BBQ sauce equally over each chicken breast. Sprinkle cheese over the top of the dish.
• Cover and bake covered for 25 minutes, then uncovered for an additional 15-20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through (165˚F internal temperature.)
• Top with crispy crumbled bacon and green onions. Enjoy!
