Ingredients
  

  • 4 large sweet potatoes skinned
  • ¾ cup butter
  • ¾ cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • ¼ cup chopped pecans
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 tbs Olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the grill for direct heat. Cut the sweet potatoes into ½" rounds. Brush with oil.
  • Grill over direct heat until grill marks appear, about 6 minutes per side.
  • Melt the butter and brown sugar in a small sauce pan until sugar dissolves. Stir in the vanilla extract and cinnamon.
  • Remove the sweet potatoes from the grill and place them on an oven proof pan. Brush the sweet potatoes with the glaze, top with pecans and then marshmallows.
  • Broil for a few minutes until the marshmallows soften and start to brown. Don't walk away because the marshmallows will burn quickly and catch fire. Ask me how I know that. Enjoy
