Hawaiian Ham Skewers

Oh hey, it's me again with another easy gluten free recipe!  My boys loved this one, but if we are being honest there are not too many things they won't eat. 

I grilled these because we are still having some great nights, even in November, here is Texas; but if you don't want to use the grill you can absolutely broil them in the oven.  Here is what you will need:  skewers, small spiral cut ham, can of pineapples, 3/4 cup brown sugar and brown rice cooked as directed.

(If you follow me at all you know I always say go fresh as often as you can. But in THIS case you CANNOT go with fresh pineapples. Your ham will turn out mushy due to the enzymes in fresh pineapples that break down the meat.) 

Take your brown sugar, spiral  ham and cut it down the middle

Take 3/4 cups of brown sugar and place in a mixing bowl

combine sugar with the pineapple juice from the can

Alternate your ham with pineapples on the skewers and place them on the grill (or under the broiler if you choose)

Baste continually with the brown sugar and juice mixture until the ham is tipped with a brown smoky color

Serve the skewers with brown rice and your choice of veggies or salad.  Baste one more time with sugar and juice before serving to your guests.  This is a great recipe to put together ahead of time if you are in a hurry!
