Ingredients for grilled sweet potatoes in foil:
- sweet potatoes
- butter
- salt and pepper
- heavy duty foil
How to grill sweet potatoes:
You will want to use heavy duty foil for a foil pack so it won’t break when you are grilling. You can use regular foil but I recommend you double wrap it to avoid it breaking.
Peel and dice the sweet potatoes.
Spray the foil with non stick spray.
Place the sweet potatoes on the foil.
Season with salt and pepper.
Place the butter on top.
Fold up the sides of the foil to make a foil pack.
Place on the grill and grill for 20 minutes until the potatoes are fork tender. You don’t want to overcook the sweet potatoes.
Allow to cool slightly and enjoy!
