This is something I have not yet made but was told about. Wrap a shrimp and jalapeno inside a strip of bacon dab with BBQ sauce and throw on the grill. Seems easy.

Scallops also work really well for this.

One yummy thing my father-in-law makes is jalepenos stuffed with cream cheese. Slice the pepper in half along its axis, spread cream cheese inside, grill for a few minutes. The cool thing about this is you can use different peppers with varying hotness, making it a treat for everyone.

I make the same type of Jalapeno poppers:

Halve the jalapenos and de-seed them, spread with cream cheese, wrap with bacon, put on bamboo skewer (that was soaking in water), grill until bacon is done.

a recipe that is fairly easy and ofers a striking presentation is rosemary-skewered scallops. You need around 1 1/2 pounds of scallops, 32 or so fresh rosemary sprigs, and 3 ounces or so of prosciutto, sliced really thin.

Prepare the scallops, an d strip the leave off the bottom inch of so of each rosemary sprig. Cut the prosciutto into strips large enough to cover the scallops. Lay the scallop flat, wrap in prosciutto, and skewer with the rosemary sprig. Repeat with the rest of the scallions. Drizzle with olive oil, squeeze a lemon over them, and sprinkle on some S and P. Go easy on the salt. The prosciutto is salty stuff.

If you are going to do portobellos, i would suggest the following.

Cut the stems off flush with the cap. Wipe both sides clean with damp paper towel. Using some moderately sharp object, poke small holes in the gill side, about a 1/2 in apart.

Take 2 ounces of your preferred firm cheese, cut into slivers. Repeat with 2 cloves of garlic, and strip of some leaves of fresh rosemary. You will also need 2 tbsps of pine nuts. Once all this is slivered, except the pine nuts, stuff it into the holes you made in the mushrooms.

Then combine 1/2 c balsamic vinegar with 1/2 tsp each of salt and pepper, then mix in 1 1/2 cups e.v.o.o. and around 12 fresh, thinly sliced basil leaves. Once blended, spoon over the mushrooms and let marinate anywhere from 30 mins to 3 hours. When ready to grill, use the marinade as a baste, and begin grilling with the gills of the mushrooms facing the coals...

Spiedie's. Basically kabobs made with pork or chicken. The key is the marinading sauce.
