Now if you don’t have access to a fire pit or charcoal grill, fear not. I’m not allowed to have either of those at my house since I live in an apartment and it’s gas grills or nothing. Below, I’ve written out a simple way to make this same recipe on a gas grill. The cook time is the same, but instead of putting the potatoes directly on coals, you just put them on the grill instead. Easy peasy.

Process

Cook Mode

Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results

About an hour before you're ready to cook, soak a large handful of wood chips in water.
Place tallow, herbs de provence, salt and pepper in a glass bowl and place over a small pot of simmering water. This will melt the duck fat and incorporate the seasonings without burning them.
While duck fat is melting, preheat your grill to medium heat using only one burner.
Remove wood chips from water and place in a smoker box.
Add smoker box to grill over the active burner.
Remove bowl from pot and toss sweet potatoes in the herb duck fat mixture coating evenly.
Wrap sweet potato mixture in aluminum foil leaving the top open and place on the coolest part of the grill for indirect cooking. Cook for 45-60 minutes or until fork tender.
Remove from grill and serve immediately.

Notes

If you don't have access to duck fat, you can just as easily use grass fed tallow or pastured lard instead.
