Coconut is a favorite fruit on many tropical islands. \u00a0It just gives you a taste of summer on a beach. \u00a0But, what if you grill the coconut? \u00a0Will the delicious taste remain or will the grill dry it out and make it taste dried out or bland. I was definitely on the fence as to whether the taste could measure up to regular coconut. \u00a0According to the Grillmaster<\/a>, coconut tastes delicious grilled and will add a unique taste to your summer fruit salads and desserts! \u00a0Below is how I would suggest trying this grilled experiment.<\/p>\n

Preparing the Coconut<\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. Crack\u00a0open the\u00a0coconut- this can be tough! For easy ways to open and hollow check out this page<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  2. Next, cut the coconut into bite size pieces for the grill. Pro tip: make sure your grill propane tank is full! You can find a refill location here<\/a>.<\/li>\n
  3. Place the pieces on the grill. You can use tongs or grilling gloves<\/a> like our grillmaster. \u00a0Grill\u00a0the coconut over med\/high heat for 10-15 minutes.<\/li>\n
  4. Take off the grill and serve either by itself, with fruit or your favorite dessert.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Final Verdict<\/h3>\n

    After all is said and done, there is a reason toasted coconut is a popular flavor. \u00a0Who needs a toaster thought when the weather is perfect and you have a grill at your disposal? \u00a0I thought\u00a0the coconut tasted\u00a0great! \u00a0Coconut tastes good the traditional\u00a0way or grilled, however, I wouldn’t get rid of either. \u00a0During your next barbecue or gathering with friends try adding some grilled coconut for a unique taste. \u00a0Sprinkle some grilled coconut over homemade ice cream for a perfect addition to a sundae bar or mix in with a fruit salad to give the fruit a tropical flavor. \u00a0Summer never tasted so good!<\/p>\n
