Grilled Sweet Potatoes

This recipe originally came from Quick Cooking. The time it takes to cook can vary a lot depending upon the heat of the fire, the size of the potato, or how you package it up. When we are in a hurry, I have even cut the potato into chunks and divided it up between four pieces of foil. It is super easy, healthy, and goes well with pork chops or Grilled Ham Steak. When we go camping this is often on our menu. Sometimes I have put the honey on before grilling, and I think that is okay, too.

Very good and simple. My favorite kind of recipe. Mine cooked a lot more quickly than stated, but I was watching them carefully. Will make again and again.

    How much easier could this get? Not much! I particularly appreciated using the unpeeled potatoes & the only change I made was to substitute lemon pepper for the S&P! Used a light, mild honey at the end & served it with grilled chicken! Definitely a keeper of a recipe! Thanks for sharing it! [Tagged, made & reviewed in Zaar Stars tag]

    Yummy, yummy, yummy in my tummy! Made as posted. Excellent taste. DH said "Wow! these sweet potatoes sure are sweet!" Great taste with the added honey flavor. I did cook them in the microwave for about 3 minutes till almost done. Threw them on the barbecue till cooked through. Only took about another 15 minutes. Thanks for posting.

    Wonderful! I admit, I covered them with foil and baked in the oven. I loved them with salt and pepper and a touch of honey. Thanks!
