Grilled Huli Huli Chicken:
12 boneless, skinless chicken thighs
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup ketchup
3/4 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons ginger - minced
1 teaspoon garlic - minced
1 teaspoon Srirachi sauce (optional)
In a mixing bowl add brown sugar,
Ketchup,
Soy sauce and chicken broth,
Now it's time to use my new kitchen gadgets that I purchased at a Pampered Chef party. The garlic is the next ingredient to add but first I need to peel it.
Just put the garlic cloves into the tube and roll it back and forth applying pressure as you go. Within 30 seconds this is what you will see...it's like magic for a cook!
After peeling, you will need to mince. I used my new Smash and Mince and is was so easy!
Then, you will need to add the ginger. Most people prefer to use dried ginger (because of convenience) but the taste is just not the same. First you will need to peel it - I use a vegetable peeler.
Then, I cut it into small pieces and used the Smash and Mince again.
Mix all ingredients together.
Pour into gallon Zip-Lock bag.
Add chicken and marinate in fridge for at least 4 hours.
When ready, discard liquid and prepare grill.
Here are some shots to show the cooking process in action.

Gilled Pineapple:
1 pineapple - peeled, cored, and cut into 1 inch rings
1/4 teaspoon honey
3 tablespoons butter - melted
1 dash of Tabasco
pinch of salt
Grab a gallon Zip-Lock bag and place the honey in first,
Add butter,
Tabasco and salt,
Please note that Chad has his own special bottle of Tabasco sauce...anyone else have one?
Mix marinade well in bag and add pineapple slices. Coat pineapple with sauce.
Marinate for at least an hour to overnight.
Prepare grill by lightly oiling the grate.
Grill on high heat for 2-3 minutes per side.
Pineapple should have dark grill marks.
