How to Make Barbecued Banana Splits

  1. Preheat grill to medium heat.
  2. Gently make a slit down the center of each unpeeled banana, being careful not to cut all the way through.
  3. Spread the banana open slightly to create a pocket.
  4. Stuff each banana with 1 tablespoon of mini marshmallows and 1 tablespoon of semi-sweet chocolate chips.
  5. Place bananas directly on the cooking grate of the preheated grill.
  6. Grill for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until the banana skin is blackened and the marshmallows are golden brown and the chocolate is melted. The banana should be caramelized to a dark golden brown.
  7. Carefully remove the bananas from the grill using tongs and transfer them to a plate.
  8. Serve immediately with a scoop of ice cream.
  9. Top with whipped cream and chopped nuts, if desired.
