Steps:

• Line 2 baking sheets with foil, and set wire racks inside each. Spray racks with nonstick cooking spray.
• Cut the bacon strips in half crosswise. Tightly wrap a strip of bacon around each piece of pineapple and transfer to prepared racks seam-side down. Continue with remaining bacon and pineapple. Place in refrigerator for 20 minutes to chill.
• Preheat grill for cooking over indirect heat or an oven to 450 degrees F.
• Whisk together the honey, mustard, hot sauce and liquid smoke in a medium bowl. Set aside.
• Put the baking sheets on the grill over indirect heat or in the oven (in batches if necessary) and cook until bacon starts to get crispy, carefully flipping bites once midway through cooking, 30 minutes per batch. Brush each bite with the honey mustard and let cook until bacon is crispy and glaze has caramelized, an additional 10 minutes.

Steps:

• Position a rack 3 to 4 inches from the heat source and preheat the broiler. Whisk the lemon juice, garlic, paprika, thyme, olive oil and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a shallow baking dish. Add the shrimp and toss to coat; marinate in the refrigerator, 20 minutes.
• Turn the shrimp in the marinade to coat well. One at a time, remove each shrimp and wrap with a piece of bacon; secure with a toothpick if desired. Place seam-side down on a baking sheet. Spoon any remaining marinade over the shrimp. Broil, turning the shrimp once, until the bacon is slightly crisp and the shrimp are cooked through, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Clean your raw shrimp and remove the shell. Put the shrimp in a zip-lock with the Catalina dressing for an hour or so.
• Meanwhile, parcook the bacon in the microwave to begin the cooking process. Or another option is to fry your bacon and then after it has cooled, you can dip it in boiling water for a few seconds to make it limp. Either way, when you wrap your shrimp this will make the cooking time for your bacon about the same as the time for the shrimp.
• Wrap the shrimp with a half-slice of bacon and put it on a skewer with pineapple. You can do another piece of shrimp or two on the skewer if you want.
• To finish the shrimp in the oven, set the oven rack six inches from the heating element so that the bacon crisps quickly. If the rack is any lower, the shrimp will overcook by the time the bacon is ready.
• To finish the shrimp off on the grill, grill it over medium hot coals for 3 or 4 minutes per side until done.
• As the bacon begins to crisp and the shrimp is beginning to turn pink, brush more Catalina dressing on the skewers (liberally) and finish grilling.
