Author Notes
Smokey and sweet, and so, so easy. —HMMessinger
Ingredients
-
5-6
small winter squash, preferably delicata
-
butter (optional)
Directions
-
Look for squash that are roughly baked potato size.
-
Light your grill and let your coals turn white. I always use a chimney. You want the lid to be reading between 325 and 350.
-
Now, choose your own adventure:
1. Wrap a whole squash in tin foil with a pat of butter.
2. Half a squash, clean out the seeds, place a pat of butter in the center, then wrap with tin foil.
3. Leave the squash untouched and whole.
-
Nestle squash tightly into hot coals. For halved squash, bake 30 minutes, untouched. For whole squash, bake 45 minutes and rotate once.
