Steps

1

Remove the bacon and cut the slab into thirds
2

Take 1 chestnut and place it on 1 slice of the cut bacon. Wrap the bacon around the chestnut and stab a toothpick through it to hold the bacon in place. Then place on a cookie sheet. Repeat until you are out of chestnuts.
3

Place the cookie sheet in the oven and cook for 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
4

While the wraps are cooking combine the ketchup, mayonnaise and brown sugar in a bowl. Mix well.
5

Once cooked immediately remove the wrapped chestnuts from the cookie sheet and place in a glass 9×13 baking dishes. Be careful not to remove the toothpicks. Also do not wait to place in the glass dish because the bacon will stick to the pan.
6

Open the can of pineapple and place 1 chunk onto each toothpick
7

With a spoon place the mixture over the chestnuts.
8

Place the baking dish back in the over for 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
9

Once done these can be placed in a crockpot on the warm setting if needed.
