This is adapted from Linda West Eckherdt's "Barbecue: In-doors and Out" (Lowell House/Contemporary Books).

Thread pineapple and peppers onto either metal or soaked bamboo skewers.

Combine ginger with butter and red pepper flakes, then brush onto kebabs.

Grill over a not-too-hot fire until lightly browned, turning frequently, basting once or twice; 7 to 10 minutes will be more than enough cooking time.

Serves 4 to 6.
