Easy Rumaki With Pineapple Food

PINEAPPLE RUMAKI

Steps:

• Combine the french dressing and pineapple chunks in a bag to marinate for 15 minutes.
• Cut each of the bacon slices into three pieces (1 bacon slice=3 small stripes of bacon).
• Preheat your oven to broil and set for 350 degrees.
• After the 15 minutes are up, take the pineapple chunks and wrap them with the bacon and put a wooden toothpick through the bacon and the pineapple to secure the rumaki together.
• Take a baking sheet and put the rumaki onto the baking sheet.
• Broil one side of the rumaki until it looks done, which should be around 6-8 minutes depending on how hot your oven is (if you want the rumaki to be crisper, leave it under the broil for a little longer).
• After the one side of the rumaki is cooked, take the baking sheet out. Grab the toothpick and flip the rumaki to the other side, which is not cooked. (Be careful as the baking sheet will be hot.).
• Put the baking sheet in the oven again. Broil for another 6-8 minutes.
• Take the baking sheet out of the oven and let cool for a few minutes.
• Now get ready to serve the rumaki.

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, canola oil, sesame oil, reserved pineapple juice, vinegar, black pepper, garlic and grated ginger in a bowl. Add the water chestnuts and marinate for 2 hours at room temperature.
• Cut the pineapple chunks in half and set aside. Cut the bacon strips in half and set aside. Cut the chicken livers into 1/2-inch pieces and set aside.
• To assemble: Lay out a half strip of bacon. Put a slice of pineapple at one end, topped by a slice of water chestnut and a piece of chicken liver. Roll up the bacon and seal with a toothpick. Repeat until all the ingredients are used.
• Place on a parchment-lined sheet pan and brush with the marinade. Bake, brushing with marinade every 10 minutes, until the bacon is crisp and the livers are just cooked but still slightly pink, 35 to 40 minutes. The last 10 minutes, brush with the marinade and sprinkle with the turbinado sugar.

SMOKED PINEAPPLE RUMAKI

Steps:

• Take the pineapple chunks, wrap them in bacon, hold them together with toothpicks, and you're done with preparation.
• In and offset firebox smoker, they'll be done in around 2 hours at 250 degrees F. If you're doing them on a charcoal grill, they need to be watched and turned so nothing burns.
• A year or so ago I served these to a bunch of folks at a large gathering. I had underestimated the number of folks who would show up for supper. Even so, I figured one or two per person would be enough. I was wrong. They were all devoured, leaving none for Linda and I! And, I got requests to do it again next time.
• Fine results for such a simple thing.
