The No-Brainer Side You Never Thought Of


Hey Reader!

Y’all already know I love it when the grill fires up, and if you’re anything like me, you want to grill everything you can once you got that flame going! These grilled sweet taters are easy to make and always surprise folks in the best way when I serve them with burgers, salmon, or just about any summertime supper.

Smoky, a little spicy, and just the right amount of sweet—they might be my all-time favorite veggie to throw on the grill.

What to Serve With These Sweet Potatoes

These smoky, slightly sweet potatoes go with just about anything coming off the grill—but here are a few of my favorites:

  • Grilled Pork Tenderloin – The rich, juicy pork pairs beautifully with the natural sweetness of the potatoes. It’s a flavor combo that never disappoints.
  • BBQ Chicken – Whether you’re using a homemade sauce or your favorite bottled version, grilled sweet potatoes are a perfect side for tangy, saucy chicken.
  • Carolina Slaw Dogs – For casual summer meals or game day, sweet potatoes are a fun twist alongside slaw-topped hot dogs.

Make Life Easy
