For a twist on the usual holiday fare, we turn ham and pineapple into juicy kabobs. The marinade gets its zip from hoisin, teriyaki and soy sauces. —Chandra Lane-Sirois, Kansas City, Missouri

Ingredients

1/4 cup hoisin sauce
1/4 cup unsweetened pineapple juice
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1-1/2 teaspoons rice vinegar
1-1/2 teaspoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
KABOBS:
2 pounds fully cooked boneless ham, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 large fresh pineapple, peeled, cored and cut into 1-in. cubes (about 4 cups)

Directions

In a large shallow dish, combine the first 6 ingredients. Add ham; turn to coat. Refrigerate, covered, overnight.
Preheat oven to 350°. Drain ham, reserving marinade. For glaze, pour marinade into a small saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, 5-7 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat.
Meanwhile, on 12 metal or soaked wooden skewers, alternately thread ham and pineapple; place in a foil-lined 15x10x1-in. baking pan. Brush with glaze. Bake, uncovered, 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned.

Continuing you comments. So anyway, a lot of money spent and it came out gross!! I googled what could have gone wrong and saw comments about having to use canned pineapple and not fresh would cause that to happen. And that hams are injected with water. I'm still not sure but very disappointed!!!
