We start with two large kielbasa sausage that will be sliced into rounds about half an inch thick. Each round gets topped with a juicy pineapple chunk (straight from the can, easy-peasy) and a slice of tamed pickled jalapeño. That combination alone would be tasty, but we’re not stopping there. The real magic comes from the glaze: a tasty blend of teriyaki sauce, brown sugar, a splash of pineapple juice, a splash of jalapeño brine, and a sprinkle of garlic powder. It’s sticky, sweet, savory, and the perfect amount of spicy.

Give each stack a drizzle of the sauce and then secure them with a toothpick. Make sure you follow the directions in order to avoid getting sticky toothpicks (that are more likely to burn with the sugary sauce). Pop the stackers in the oven for just over 20 minutes or until they’re sizzling and caramelized. Whether you’re making these for a tropical themed party or casual get-together, they’re guaranteed to make everyone swoon!
