How to Make Acorn Squash In Foil On The Grill
- Preheat grill to medium heat.
- Cut acorn squash in half lengthwise and remove seeds and stringy pulp.
- Place each acorn squash half cut-side down on a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil (approximately 12x12 inches per half).
- Drizzle each squash half with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
- Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper over each half.
- Add 1 tablespoon butter and 1 tablespoon brown sugar to the center of each squash cavity (optional).
- Wrap the foil tightly around each squash half, creating a sealed packet.
- Place the foil packets directly on the grill grates over medium heat.
- Cook for 30 minutes.
- Carefully open the foil packets. Use tongs to flip the squash halves cut-side up.
- Reseal the foil packets and cook for an additional 30-40 minutes, or until a fork easily pierces the squash.
- Remove from grill and let rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
