How to Make Bbq Shrimp On Pineapple Planks
- Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
- Prepare the pineapple planks: Cut the pineapple into 1-inch thick slices. Cut each slice in half if very large. Remove the core.
- Marinate the shrimp: In a bowl, combine the shrimp, BBQ sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix well and let marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Grill the pineapple: Place the pineapple planks on the preheated grill. Grill for 3-4 minutes per side, until grill marks appear and the pineapple is slightly softened.
- Grill the shrimp: Place the marinated shrimp on top of the grilled pineapple planks. Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the shrimp are pink and cooked through.
- Garnish and serve: Remove from grill and garnish with chopped green onions and a sprinkle of extra BBQ sauce, if desired. Serve immediately.
