Notes

Buy your peaches ahead of time! It can be tricky to find perfectly ripe peaches at the store, so you may need a few days for the peaches to ripen at home. Similar to avocados, allow the peaches to ripen on the counter and transfer them to the fridge once they’re ripe to slow down the ripening process.

Avoid using overripe peaches. The more ripe the peaches are, the more sugar there is, leading to the peaches burning quickly. They’re also too tender and soft to take the grill’s heat.

I usually leave the skins on the peaches to help them keep their shape as they grill and help keep them from sticking to the grill.

Make sure to brush the grill with oil before adding the peaches. Brushing the grill will help protect the flesh and ensure that the peaches don’t stick to your grill and tear when you try to lift them.
