Ingredients for Bbq Banana

  • Banana
  • Hershey Bar
  • Mini Marshmallows

How to Make Bbq Banana

  1. Preheat your grill to medium heat.
  2. Carefully slice the bananas lengthwise, leaving about ½ inch unsliced at the bottom to hold the boat together.
  3. Stuff each banana half with mini marshmallows and your favorite chocolate pieces (approximately 1-2 ounces per banana).
  4. Wrap each banana in aluminum foil, creating a sealed packet.
  5. Place the foil-wrapped bananas on the grill and cook for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the chocolate is melted and the marshmallows are gooey.
  6. Carefully remove from the grill and let cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
