Today I have some more grilled meat on a stick for you and this time it’s a tasty grilled teriyaki shrimp and pineapple skewers! This grilled shrimp could not be easier to make! You simply marinate the shrimp in a quick, easy and tasty homemade pineapple teriyaki sauce, skewer it up along with some pineapple slices and grill it to perfection! I enjoy eating these teriyaki shrimp skewers right off of the stick as finger food but it’s also great used in everything from salads, to tacos, sandwiches, etc. No matter how you plan on enjoying this grilled teriyaki shrimp and pineapple it’s sure to be a hit!

Pineapple is one of my favorite grilled fruits!
Marla Meridith says
This looks so delicious Kevin!
bh says
looks great! quick question is the shrimp peeled and deveined or just deveined and marinated and grilled shell on?
Patrick M says
I found the candied jalapenos, but what is the grilled pineapple with what looks like bacon? I cant' find it in the search.
Karen says
ha! I saw bacon pieces on the plate in his pictures, too… but no mention of bacon in the ingredient list
kevin says
I like to use this shrimp in: Teriyaki Grilled Shrimp and Pineapple Tacos with Candied Jalapeno and Bacon which uses bacon!
kevin says
bh: Peeled and deviened before marinating. Enjoy!
kevin says
Patrick M: The rest of the Grilled Teriyaki Shrimp and Bacon and Candied Jalapeno Pineapple Salsa Tacos with Sriracha Mayo is coming soon! 🙂
Patrick M says
Kevin, that's just wrong. You show the pictures, I run to the store, sitting in the aisle waiting for your response, and you tease us. I'm showing this to the cop to explain what I'm up to, lol
solidworks says
Omg looks soooo goooood!
Karen says
In your directions, it says to marinate the shrimp. NOT the pineapple? Do you baste with the sauce during grilling? Or pour it on the skewers after grilling time is completed? I see sauce all over that pineapple. Looks SO good and want to try soon, but need a response first. Thank you
kevin says
I like to make extra marinade/sauce to baste on the whole skewer!
Karen says
Would this marinade be good for salmon? Then grill with some pineapple spears?
kevin says
This marinade would be amazing with salmon and griled pineapple!
Patty says
Deveined is the correct spelling. Sounds delicious!!
Mel says
Can you use canned pineapple?
kevin says
You can, though fresh pineapple grills better.
