How to.
While having a braai or BBQ let your wood or charcoal burn to warm coals before placing the foil wrapped potato´s on them. The photo below shows you they are very hot. If that is good to braai your meat then place the wrapped sweet potato´s on the sides of the coals where it is a little cooler.
Wrap each potato in the foil twice or three times.
The image below shows you the potato in foil on the coals. It is necessary to turn them now and again to prevent them from burning.
Once they soft inside, testing with a long braai fork, then either cut them open or as we love to do is squeeze them and the potato pops up and splits.
Sprinkle them with salt and pepper and add butter. Either mix that up or just enjoy with your plate of meat and salads.
