Do you boil the sauce before you put the shrimp on the grill?

I love grilled shrimp and I love grilled pineapple, so I was in heaven with this recipe! The marmalde gives a nice sweetness without overpowering. And topped with cilantro? Absolutely!!! Fantastic! Thanks GailAnn! Made for ZWT 7 - Count Dracula and His Hot Bites
