Grilled Sweet Potatoes image

I don't really like the traditional sweet potato casserole, but my son loves sweet potatoes, so I try to come up with different ways to cook them. This spring I tried grilling them. These are now a favorite of mine and my sons.

Ingredients

2 large sweet potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons butter

Sprinkle about half of the brown sugar, cumin, and cayenne pepper over each portion. Season with salt and pepper.
