Prep Grill: Preheat grill to a high heat of 500 degrees F. Make sure the grill grates are clean.
Prep Sweet Potatoes: Place the sweet potato slices in a large bowl. Drizzle some oil over top (just enough to lightly coat the potatoes) and then use your hands to rub the oil over all sides. Sprinkle lightly with salt.
Grill Sweet Potatoes: Place sweet potatoes on the hot grill over direct heat and cook for approximately 3-4 minutes per side for slices and 3-6 minutes per side for wedges or until nicely charred.
Serve: Remove and serve immediately with your favorite sauce for dipping - we love our mustard mayo!
Notes
How to Cut: for slices I would recommend using a mandolin. For wedges use a sharp chef's knife.
Yams or Sweet Potatoes: you can use either yams or sweet potatoes in this recipe.
Any prepping needed for sweet potatoes? Just slice, oil, and season with kosher salt. Sweet potatoes do not need to be peeled or boiled before cooking on the grill.
Storage: keep leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 1-2 days.
