When we thinking of grilling, typically meat, fish, and veggies come to mind. We bet you haven’t thought about grilling fruits. Some fruits are simply meant to be grilled and when they are they become caramelized and even sweeter. It’s a real treat! Here are five fruits you have to grill at your next barbecue.

Bananas

Sure, bananas are delicious, but they’re even tastier when they’re grilled. They become caramelized and they pair so well with toppings like ice cream, caramel, chocolate sauce, cinnamon, brown sugar, whipped cream, and rum.

Watermelon

This fruit is already a must-have at barbecues and you can elevate it by grilling it. Grilled watermelon is a fabulous addition to salads and it tastes great on its own.

Peaches

Have you had grilled peaches, vanilla ice cream, and balsamic vinegar? If you haven’t then you’re really missing out on this dessert. Grilled peaches also taste great in cocktails or salads.

Pineapple

At barbecues, pineapple is usually on kebabs, but it tastes just as great grilled and served in cocktails or with sorbets.

Mangoes

Mangoes add a tropic vibe to whatever you pair them with and grilled ones make great additions to meat or fish.
