Backyard garden strawberries are often smaller than store-bought, so be the judge of how many strawberries you need for the skewers. Or even simpler, grill strawberries on a grill rack until a bit charred and warmed through and spoon atop frozen yogurt or ice cream.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    Serves 4

Ingredients

12 medium-sized strawberries
8 large marshmallows
8 slices French baguette
Olive oil, for brushing
One (4-ounce) bar dark chocolate, cut into 8 pieces
1/4 teaspoon coarse kosher or sea salt

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Prepare a medium-hot fire on one side of your grill.

    Step 2

    Thread the strawberries and marshmallows alternately on 4 skewers (if using wooden skewers, pre-soak them). Lightly brush the slices of bread with olive oil.

    Step 3

    Place the skewers directly over the fire and grill for about 4 or 5 minutes until the marshmallows have browned.

    Step 4

    At the same time, grill one side of the bread. Turn the slices over and move to the indirect side of the grill. Place a piece of chocolate on each slice and sprinkle with a pinch of coarse salt. Remove from the grill when the chocolate is soft but still holds its shape.

    Step 5

    Serve the skewers with the grilled bread for a grown-up version of s'mores.
