Instructions

Thaw or partially cook the meatballs according to package directions so that you will be able to insert a skewer safely. Set aside.
Combine the crushed pineapple, tomato paste, garlic, and brown sugar in a saucepan and heat over medium-high heat, stirring frequently. Cook until hot throughout and fully combined.
Add in the meatballs and stir to coat completely.
Let cool if the kids are helping assemble the skewers—alternate meatballs with pineapple. Meanwhile, heat the grill to medium-high heat.
Thread the meatballs and pineapple slices on metal or bamboo skewers. Cook directly on the grill for about 5 minutes on each side to get a delicious-looking sear on the pineapples.
