Sweet potatoes on the Blackstone. That's the video. That's the recipe. And it's perfect.
Here's why this works so well: sweet potatoes are basically sugar delivery vehicles, and a hot flat top is a caramelization machine. Cut-side down, undisturbed, the natural sugars brown into crispy candy edges while the centers go soft and sweet. No oven, no foil, no forty-five minutes of waiting.
Sweet or Savory — Pick Your Fighter
Cinnamon and a knob of butter for the sweet crowd; smoked paprika and salt for the savory side. Both are right. Make both and let the table fight it out.
What You'll Need
