Summer Fruit Compote

Submitted by HappyMommy1422

"I cut this recipe out of the newspaper last summer and have made it once, using Cointreau as the liquor and blackberries. I served it with pound cake and ice cream and it was wonderful. Easy to fix when you've already got the grill up and going. You can just throw these packets on while the burgers are cooking."

directions

1. Prepare a low fire in the grill.
