Dinner Tonight: Grilled Turkey Brats w/ Grilled Pineapple Rings and Asparagus


"Tis the season to be grilling fa la la la......" Fired the grill up and grilled some Hamburgers, Brats and Turkey Brats. I had the Turkey Brats, Honeysuckle White Turkey Brats. Along with grilling the Brats i also grilled some Pineapple Rings, recipe follows at the end of the post. First time I grilled Pineapple, I've lived a sheltered life! They turned out fantastic! Also had fresh Asparagus, I cut the stalks into three pieces and lightly fried them in extra Virgin Olive Oil and and I Can't Believe It's Not Butter. I added Almond slices and Crumbled Turkey Bacon and seasoned with Garlic Salt and Ground Black Pepper.
