Grilled Sweet Potatoes

Ingredients

4 Sweet Potatoes (approximately 2 pounds)

1 /2 cup Unsalted Butter, softened

2 Tbl Brown Sugar

1/4 tsp Cinnamon

1 tsp Hot Sauce

1/2 tsp Kosher Salt

In a small mixing bowl, blend together butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, and hot sauce.

Place sweet potatoes on a baking sheet and lightly brush the surfaces with the butter mixture.

Prepare the grill. Place sweet potatoes over direct medium heat, buttered side down. Brush the tops with the butter mixture and cook the potatoes for 12-15 minutes, turning once.
