What you need
  1. 2 large sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
  2. 2 tablespoons butter

  4. 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  5. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or more to taste
What you do
  1. Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate.

  4. Sprinkle about half of the brown sugar, cumin, and cayenne pepper over each portion.
  5. Season with salt and pepper.
