Preparation
-
Place 6 shrimp on each bamboo skewer, leaving room on either end. Make certain to cover the end of the skewer with foil so it doesn't burn.
Wrap one piece of bacon around each scallop and place six scallops on each two-pronged skewer so they don't turn.
Brush both sldes of the shrimp and scallops with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
Place the shrimp and scallop skewers on a medium hot grill. Keep an eye on them because they will cook quickly and you don't want to allow burning.
Grill for approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Take them off when they are ~80 percent done.
Brush on the Peach Bourbon BBQ sauce during the last moments of cooking or when cooking is complete for added flavor.
