The Sauce is Boss

I saw this recipe for bbq stuffed sweet potatoes and was intrigued. It was a fun combination but THE SAUCE IS BOSS!! The last time I made my crock pot ribs they were delicious. Of course I made them with Dinosaur BBQ sauce so that explains a lot. This time all I had was Sweet Baby Rays which I love dipping stuff in but the flavor didn't hold up well in the crock pot. Sad story. It was kind of boring.

Sweet Potato Fries!

Sweet potatoes are surprisingly difficult to cut! Maybe a different knife is in order. The taste on these sweet potato fries was delicious. I used my creole seasoning which is always delicious. I had difficulty getting them completely crispy, some bits stuck to the pan and began to burn so I couldn't bake them longer. I found one recipe that suggested sprinkling the fries with cornstarch to help them crisp up, I'll have to try it. I will definitely use parchment paper next time too but I'm all out!
Sweet Potato Fries!
Ingredients:
1 or 2 sweet potato
Olive Oil
Salt
Pepper
Creole Seasoning or preferred seasoning
Directions:
1. Cut up the sweet potatoes. Try to get it as uniform as possible for even baking.
2. Lightly coat the sweet potatoes with olive oil and seasonings.
3. Cover a baking tray with parchment paper. Lay the fries in a single layer. Bake at 450 degrees for 20 minutes. Flip fries over and bake for another 15-20 minutes, until crispy.
As you can see it got a little messy! Still delicious though. I'll be giving these another go.
