    tooth picks

  2. Line a baking sheet with foil for easier cleanup.
  3. Cut up pineapple into bite size pieces and cut each bacon strip in half.
  4. Wrap each piece of pineapple with bacon strip and secure with a tooth pick.
  5. Put honey, Pigs Can fly and Pineapple vinegar in a food processor until blended.
  6. Separate into two bowls. (Put one bowl aside to brush on after bacon wrapped pineapple is cooked.)
  7. Dip a pastry brush in one bowl coat bacon wrapped pineapple.
  8. Bake or grill about 20 minutes until bacon is crispy.
  9. Transfer to a platter and using a clean pastry brush, use reserved bowl of glaze to brush on cooked bacon wrapped pineapple and serve while warm.

Also works well with shrimp or scallops! Yum!
