Re: Sweet potatoes
I agree. White sweet potatoes are actually nicer. Less sugary and more flavorful.
Re: Sweet potatoes
here's something i do on the grill. cube the sweet potatoes, toss in some salt and olive oil. wrap up in foil into a flat package along with a generous sprig of rosemary. leave it on one corner of your grill while you do the meat. flip once after about 10 mins. take it off the grill in about 15-20 mins, leave aside until everything else is done. open up, sprinkle on some fresh cracked pepper. turns out buttery yet unmashed every single time.
