What a great way to grill sweet potatoes! In order to cut the fat and calories drastically, I used olive oil spray to coat the the potato slices. I then sprinkled the brown sugar on and it worked fine. I also did one batch with seasoning salt instead, and it was good too. Thanks for posting. I need to try more foil packet cooking on the grill. I liked it!

Fantastic and easy prep! I was out of oil ... I used Pam spray between layers of potatoes & brown sugar. I used more than 1 Tbls of brown sugar which was too much.
