Ingredients
- Graham Crakers: The classic crunch cookie that holds everything together. I used honey graham crackers.
- Hershey Chocolate Bars: The traditional chocolate for s'mores!
- Marshmallows: I used jumbo marshmallows because they become extra gooey on the grill.
Tim's Tip: Remember that every grill cooks differently, so keep an eye on the marshmallows as they heat up. A quick check at the 4-5 minute mark will help you nail that perfect texture every time.
How to Make Grilled S'mores
1. Preheat Grill: Preheat your grill to 375°F.
2. Build the S'mores: Split the graham crackers and chocolate bars in half. Layer ½ graham cracker, chocolate bar, marshmallow, and the second half of the graham cracker to build each s'more.
3. Wrap in Foil: Wrap each S'more tightly in aluminum foil to help everything melt together.
4. Grill: Place the wrapped s'mores on the grill with the chocolate bar side down. Grill for about 5 minutes, until the chocolate is melted and the marshmallow is soft and gooey.
5. Serve and Enjoy: Carefully unwrap and enjoy warm, melty grilled s'mores.
Substitutions and Variations
- Swap the Chocolate: Replace the Hershey bar with a peanut butter cup for a rich, chocolate-peanut butter twist. Peanut butter fans will love this!
- Change the Crackers: Try cinnamon graham crackers, chocolate graham crackers, or a fudge striped cookies.
- Add Fresh Fruit: Place some banana or fresh strawberries inside the s'more before grilling for a fruity variation.
Expert Tips
- No grill? No problem: Bake the foil-wrapped s'mores on a baking sheet in a 450°F oven for 4-5 minutes, until the chocolate melts and the marshmallow turns soft.
- Chocolate Side Down: Place the foil packets on the grill with the chocolate facing down. This helps the chocolate melt evenly.
- Seal the Foil Well: Wrap each s'more tightly so the heat stays trapped inside without making a mess.
- Serve Immediately: Grilled s'mores are at their best right off the grill while the marshmallow and chocolate are perfectly melted.
