How to Make Honeymoon Stackers

Ingredients

1 (14 oz) package kielbasa sausage, sliced into ½-inch rounds
1 (20 oz) can pineapple chunks, drained (reserve juice)

1 (12 oz) jar tamed pickled jalapeño slices, drained
½ cup teriyaki sauce
¼ cup brown sugar

2 tbsp reserved pineapple juice
1 tbsp jalapeño brine (from the jar)
½ tsp garlic powder

Toothpicks (for serving)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Make the glaze: In a bowl, mix teriyaki sauce, brown sugar, pineapple juice, jalapeño brine, and garlic powder.

Assemble the stacks:
- Place a kielbasa round on the baking sheet.
- Top with a pineapple chunk and a jalapeño slice.

Drizzle with glaze (reserve some for later).
Bake for 18–22 minutes, until caramelized and bubbly.
Add toothpicks (after baking to avoid burning).
