Shrimp Sausage and Pineapple Kabobs

Shrimp sausage and pineapple kabobs are an easy and tasty summer grilling recipe.

I think it’s an unspoken rule that you need to grill kabobs or skewers at least once in the summer, right?!

Kabob ideas are endless really.

I went with this combo for a few reasons…

And the cook time on all three is about the same (the smoked sausage is already cooked).

How to Make Shrimp Sausage and Pineapple Kabobs

If I put peppers or onions on this kabob, either the shrimp would be way overdone, or the peppers and onions would not be done enough.

A quick 5 minutes per side for these kabobs and everything is grilled to perfection!

Personally, I like using wooden kabob skewers rather than metal.

I soak the wooden skewers in water for at least an hour so they don’t catch fire on the grill (that would be bad).

I used jumbo shrimp with the shells removed and seasoned them simply with old bay seasoning.

Then cut the pineapple into about 1 inch chunks, or about the same size as the shrimp.

It sounds crazy, but I coat the pineapple with olive oil, kosher salt and pepper.

This prevents it from sticking to the grill.

And the salt and pepper cut the sweetness just a bit helping it blend beautifully into this savory dish.

Use whatever smoked sausage you like, I went with a pineapple bacon flavored chicken sausage that I found at the grocery store.

Yum!

Smoked sausage is already cooked, so just a quick warm up and char on the grill makes it perfect to use.

Set up your kabob making station and have at it 🙂

Call me weird, but I find kabob making to be enjoyable and creative.

I turn my music up (and maybe even sing a little), take my time, and make each one a little different.

They look so pretty 🙂

Preheat the grill to about medium to medium high heat, everyone’s grill is a little different so use your best judgement.

5 minutes per side and Shrimp Sausage and Pineapple Kabobs are ready!

We had these with Skillet Corn with Bacon and the combo was crazy delicious!
