Favorite Grill & BBQ Stuff:

Stainless Steel Kebab Skewers: Our skewer go-to. No more soaking to keep the skewers from burning. The flat edge makes flipping easy.
Grilling Wire Skewers– The flexibility of the wire skewers makes it easy to wrap the skewers onto the best part of the grill. Perfect for skewers you are going to remove from the skewer after grilling and serve plated or in tacos or other delicious dishes.
Grill Baskets – Some days we just don’t want to bother with skewering every single thing. Throw them all into a basket and grill from there. Easy-peasy.

The Ultimate BBQ Tongs –
Avoid BBQ Tool Sets. We’ve yet to find a set where we love everything in it. Either the spatula or the tongs or the brush is wonky. Or there is stuff in there I never need. Do yourself a favor and just buy what you need a la carte. For grilling tongs, these bad boys are awesome.
Meathead: The Science of Great Barbecue and Grilling –
Have a grilling or BBQ question, you’ll most likely find an answer here. The most comprehensive grilling & BBQ book we’ve ever found, by far. He breaks down the science and myths, the tools, solid recipes, perfecting techniques, what’s BBQ competition tricks aren’t worth the extra time at home, and much more. You will be grill & BBQ enlightened.
OXO Large Silicon Basting Brush –
Love these basting brushes. Clean up easy, holds a solid amount of sauce. They are our basting go-to’s.

Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Skewers with Pineapple

Yield: 6 servings
Prep Time: 15 mins
Cook Time: 15 mins
Total Time: 30 mins
If using wood or bamboo skewers, soak the skewers completely in water for at least 30 minutes. This will help minimize the wood/skewers from burning.We prefer to use chicken thigh meat, but feel free to use whatever cut you prefer. Thigh meat will tend to be juicier than breast.
