Pineapple shrimp

Ernie and I joked that yesterday was a Pioneer Woman cooking day. I can't help it, I don't have much time to cook during the week (that should change when I'm home all the time) and a lot of PW's recipes have a lot of butter in them -- which makes me automatically think of "special occasions.
This shrimp isn't really a special occasion type food, it just took a bit to thread all the shrimp through the skewers. Ree's original recipe is here, but here's how I did it. We ate it with my new favorite way to eat potatoes -- smashed -- and corn on the cob. And Ernie was a happy man.

Peeled, Deveined Jumbo Shrimp
Teriyaki Sauce
Chopped Garlic
1 Tbsp. Sugar
Salt
Canned Pineapple Chunks, juice reserved
Lemon juice
Fresh ginger

Make a marinade by combining Teriyaki sauce with remaining ingredients and reserved pineapple juice. Feel free to add whatever ingredients sound good! Stir in peeled/deveined jumbo shrimp and marinate at least a couple of hours. Skewer pineapple chunks with the shrimp and grill until done.

See, that sounds good and not insane. Her butter usage is usually so prohibitive that I never seriously think about making her recipes.

And I clicked on a green bean recipe today that begins with melting bacon fat. I'm sure it's delicious, but bacon fat, really?
