Quick 2hr teriyaki marinade on some thighs. On the mini at 400°. Not the quality of @doc_Eggerton chicken but not bad for a quicky.

    I'd slap some pineapple on each side of that yardbird and make a sammich!

    Thank You guys.  I'm getting ready to try the 2 day teriyaki that Doc post but these were good pre teasers.   The pineapple will be redone just the same. PH works killer for this cook.

    Looks good to me.  I am a marinade maniac, 24 hours is a short prep time.

    I have been cooking my preparations with a lot of sugar really high or indirect to limit the carbonized char.  If you do a really long soak in teriyaki you might wantto think about that.  I still do a 400 or plus temp but move away from the active flame.  The sugar really get bitter fast if too close to the flame.

    That looks great - as your cooks always do. I tend to forget what a treat grilled pineapple is for very little trouble.

    Really enjoy the grilled pineapple, too, and it always goes great with chicken.

    That is a great looking meal. Mrs. 'roo and I are huge fans of grilled pineapple with teriyaki chicken. I like Pineapple Head on mine too, but the Mrs. doesn't (too sweet), so I always have to do it half & half. Happy wife = happy life.  :)

    very nice. I like the PH on the grilled pineapple as well - it's a good side with fish, too

    I would recommend the old Steak And Ale Kensington Club marinade if you like long marinades.

    8 oz soy sauce
    10 oz sherry (the drinking kind....not cooking)
    28 oz pineapple juice
    4 oz red wine vinegar
    3/4 cup sugar
    1 tsp garlic powder

    Chicken or steak can easily go 24 hrs.

    My personal favorite is steak marinated overnight in Moore's marinade and drained off and replaced with the Kensington marinade for and additional 8 to 24 hrs. Very tasty.
