Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 20 ounces pineapple chunks, fresh or canned
  • 2 tablespoon pineapple juice, lime juice, lemon juice or orange juice (or water!)
  • 1/2 cup orange marmalade
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon or yellow mustard
  • 1/4 teaspoon cloves, ground
  • 1 pound ham, fully cooked, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1/2 pound Swiss cheese, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 green pepper, medium, cut into 1-inch pieces, optional
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: Soak bamboo skewers for at least 1/2 hour before preparing the rest.

  • Step 2: Drain pineapple, if using canned, reserving 2 tablespoons juice; set pineapple aside.

  • Step 3: In a small bowl, mix marmalade, mustard, cloves and either reserved pineapple juice or other juice. Alternately thread ham, cheese, pineapple and, if desired, green pepper on 8 skewers.

  • Step 4: Place kabobs on greased grill rack or copper grill sheet.

  • Step 5: Grill, uncovered, over medium heat 5-7 minutes or until heated through, turning and basting frequently with marmalade sauce. Be careful cheese doesn't melt! Or, as mentioned in my description, put the cheese on separate skewers and only add to the grill for the last 2 minutes.

  • Step 6: Serve with remaining sauce.
