Grilled Sweet Potato

Yield: 1 servings

Ingredients and directions for this recipe

4 lb Medium sweet potatoes:

-GLAZE-
4 tb Molasses
1/2 Orange; (note: I usually
-throw in a little Grand
-Marnier too) , Juice of
1 tb Unsalted butter at room temp
1 pn Allspice
Salt and pepper to taste

Grilled sweet potatoes I can do (we'll see about BBQ in a few days). I've
never been nearly as successful with raw sweet potatoes on the grill as
with pre-cooked ones. A favorite recipe is a molasses glazed sweet potatoes
from "Thrill of the Grill," which has a real candied sweet potato taste
without being cloyingly sweet:

Peel and slice lengthwise into 1/2" slices. Cook in boiling salted water to
cover, 8-10 minutes. You should be able to get a fork thru but feel
resistance, and slices should not break apart - obviously they need to hold
up to the grill later. Drain 'em and cool to room temp. (I'll do this in
the AM or nite before; remove from fridge 30 minutes before grilling.)

Glaze for 4# taters is: Mash mixture with back of a spoon till butter is
incorporated

Grill the slices 2-3 minutes per side over a moderately hot fire, then
brush with glaze and cook 30 seconds per side to finish the glaze

I like a *very light* grate nutmeg to finish too, but I'm then a nutmeg
junkie.
