Ingredients:

• 50 large shrimp
• 17 slices of bacon
• 1 onion
• 16 mushrooms
• 2 green bell peppers
• 2 red bell peppers
• Barbecue sauce

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:

   • Begin by cutting the onion and peppers into large chunks, approximately 1 inch squares or slightly larger.
   • Cut the bacon slices into thirds, ensuring they are slightly cooked but not crispy. This can be achieved by lightly cooking them, perhaps in the microwave.

2. Assemble the Kabobs:

   • Take each shrimp and wrap it snugly in a strip of bacon.
   • Thread the skewers, starting with a bacon-wrapped shrimp, followed by a chunk of red pepper, onion, mushroom cap, green pepper, and another bacon-wrapped shrimp. Continue until the skewer is filled, alternating ingredients for a colorful presentation.

3. Grill the Kabobs:

   • Preheat your grill and place a lightly greased foil on it.
   • Carefully place the assembled skewers on the grill, ensuring they are evenly spaced.
   • Cook the kabobs for approximately 7 to 10 minutes, depending on the temperature of your grill, turning them occasionally to ensure even cooking.
   • While grilling, generously baste the kabobs with barbecue sauce on each side, allowing the flavors to meld and infuse into the ingredients.

4. Serve and Enjoy:

   • Once the shrimp are cooked through, and the bacon is crispy, remove the kabobs from the grill.
   • Serve hot, garnished with additional barbecue sauce if desired.
   • Pair these delectable kabobs with your favorite sides, such as a fresh salad or fluffy rice, for a complete and satisfying meal.
