Delicious. And you can sub in any other jelly, too. Peach or apricot work best, I think. I also prefer to add a bit of lemon juice instead of white wine. Yum!

The fresh pineapple on these skewers was outstanding. The marinade was not my favorite, although DD thought it was outstanding. I really liked having the skewer items in larger pieces than I usually use. I served it with grilled onions, peppers and, mushrooms and a green salad. All in all, a lovely meal.a
