How Do You Make Grilled Banana Splits?
It’s unfortunate that more desserts don’t take advantage of the grill during a backyard barbecue. This grilled banana split takes great advantage of the grill and can be the perfect cap to a cookout. You’ll need a very hot grill and all the standard stuff for a banana split. Heat the grill as hot as it will go. Prepare the bananas by trimming the ends with a knife. Cut off the stem and the base of the banana. With the banana still in its skin, cut it in half vertically so it’s in two long lengths. Brush the cut face of each banana half with melted butter. Place the banana halves cut side down on the hottest part of the grill. They should sizzle quite audibly. Stand ready with tongs and a spatula. The bananas will take less than a minute to grill. To burn in grill marks, give the bananas a quarter turn so a new set of grill marks runs across the first set. This isn’t necessary, but it looks nice. Check the bananas as they cook; the cut side facing the grill should turn golden very quick
