SIMPLEST GRILLED PEACHES
Grilled peaches may be summer's greatest joy. Cook them over a medium to low gas grill or a dying charcoal fire, and serve them with ice cream, whipped cream or nothing at all.

Steps:
- Heat a gas grill to medium. If you are cooking on a charcoal grill, wait until the fire has died down to medium to low heat.
- Cut the peaches along their seams, all the way around, and twist their halves off their pits. Brush the cut sides of the peaches with olive oil and grill, cut side down, until the fruit has developed grill marks and started to soften, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Brush the tops with oil, turn over and move to the side of the grill to continue cooking over indirect heat, another 4 to 5 minutes. You can add flavor by brushing them with maple syrup and bourbon, or molasses and butter. But if they are perfect peaches, they shouldn't need anything at all.

GRILLED PEACHES
Steps:
- Right before cooking, slice the peaches along the seam and pit them. Coat them in oil for cooking, being sure to give them a thick, even coating. I prefer to toss them in a gallon size Ziplock bag along with the oil and gently rub the oil into the peach. This reduces mess, which is critical when you might be in the backyard, far from access to a sink. Don't use extra virgin olive oil, as the smoke point is lower and may cause the peaches to taste burnt and smoky. Grill the peaches skin side up for 5-6 minutes. When they begin to sizzle and shine, turn them over onto their skin and cook for another 6-7 minutes, or until they soften and lose a little bit of their shape. Serve immediately, with or without a garnish of whipped cream or ice cream. If you don't have room to eat all the peaches you've grilled, they can be reheated in the microwave for about 30 seconds, and they still taste great the second time around.

Tips:
- Choose ripe, firm peaches: Ripe peaches have a sweet, juicy flavor and hold their shape well on the grill. Look for peaches that are slightly soft to the touch and have a deep yellow or orange color.
- Use a variety of peaches: There are many different varieties of peaches, each with its own unique flavor and texture. Try using a mix of different varieties to create a more complex flavor profile.
- Grill the peaches over medium heat: Medium heat will help to prevent the peaches from burning and will allow them to cook evenly throughout.
- Brush the peaches with olive oil or melted butter: This will help to keep the peaches moist and prevent them from sticking to the grill.
- Grill the peaches for 2-3 minutes per side, or until they are slightly charred and tender: You can check the doneness of the peaches by inserting a toothpick or skewer into the center. If it comes out clean, the peaches are done.
- Serve the grilled peaches immediately: Grilled peaches are best served warm, right off the grill. You can top them with a variety of toppings, such as honey, cinnamon, or ice cream.
Conclusion:
Grilled peaches are a delicious and versatile summer treat. They can be enjoyed on their own, or used as a topping for yogurt, oatmeal, or pancakes. Grilled peaches are also a great addition to salads, grilled meats, and fish. With their sweet, juicy flavor and slightly charred exterior, grilled peaches are sure to be a hit at your next cookout.
