Sweet Potato Ingredients:
• 2-3 large sweet potatoes, washed
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 1/2 teaspoons brown sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon cumin
• 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
• 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper
Sriracha Sauce Ingredients:
• 1/4 cup sour cream (can be substituted for plain Greek Yogurt)
• 1/4 cup light mayonnaise
• 1 1/2 teaspoons Sriracha sauce
• Put sweet potatoes in a medium pot of water on the stove, covered. Bring to a boil over medium heat. Lower heat and simmer until potatoes are tender about 25 minutes. Remove from water and let cool
• While potatoes are cooling, light Cowboy Hardwood Lump Charcoal in a charcoal chimney and let burn for 10-15 minutes
• Spread hot coals over one side of grill and preheat grill for approximately 10 minutes
for indirect grilling
• Peel potatoes and cut into strips to create fry shape. Place strips in large bowl and coat with olive oil. Sprinkle in brown sugar, cumin, chili powder, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper and coat fries evenly
• In a medium bowl, combine sour cream, mayonnaise and Sriracha sauce. Mix with a fork or spoon until reaching an even, creamy consistency
• Oil grill gates to prevent sticking. Place potato wedges on the grill and cook for 3-4 minutes each side, or until desired crispiness. We recommend grilling until they are caramelized. Remove from grill and let cool
• Serve sweet potato fries with a side of Sriracha dipping sauce. Enjoy!
