Grilled Bananas – Not Just For Weird People :)
My first thoughts when getting ready to write this post were “They’re gonna think I am weird”.
But honestly, if you are just now figuring that out about me, we got us one Jim Dandy of a learning curve here. Just about all Southerners are weird (the good ones at least). Where else do folks call every carbonated beverage a “coke” or “co-cola” despite flavor, brand, or location? Where else are you considered unfit to drive if you forget to wave at a car going down the road (I was once forced to pull over and relinquish the wheel during a driving lesson when I didn’t wave back at someone). And where else is a delivery man considered rude if he refuses to sit down and have a glass of tea before going? This is just the tip of the iceberg but you get my point.
Now outside of the south, folks might call our weird behavior “eccentric” but everybody knows eccentric is just weirdness puttin’ on airs and Southerners don’t put on no airs. See that? Here I am a bona fide member of Sigma Tau Delta and I just used a double negative without blinking.
My Mama must be so proud!
So here we go, a weird food post. Now you know I’m not going to bring you something unless I absolutely love it. This wins bonus points with me also because it uses up food that might otherwise have gone bad or wasted and that’s another tender spot of mine.
People that come from my kind of people don’t like to waste food.
It seems like if you’ve had a single generation in your family tree that has gone without, you have an natural horror at throwing away anything that is still fit to eat. You know all those studies coming out every five minutes about how the South has the highest obesity rate? Newsflash folks, its coz we used to be hungry and we’re still a partyin’ over being able to walk into the Piggly Wiggly and leave with the makings of a Thanksgiving dinner in the middle of August.
Oh I know, I know, we could all use a little less partyin’ but today I’m showing you how not to waste fruit and even though it has some brown sugar and a bit of margarine in it, it is still a whole heap healthier than some of the things they serve in fancy restaurants so get off m’tractor and lets get cookin’!
This is a great last minute dessert to have while you’re grilling out.
Just put them on when you put your hamburgers on and wait til they turn good and black.
Don’t you just love it when you make food that is SUPPOSED to turn black? Me too.
You’re gonna need: Bananas, Margarine (or butter if you prefer), and Brown Sugar.
Use light or dark brown sugar, whatever you have on hand is fine.
We also found that a little cinnamon is DIVINE mixed in as well.
Moosh up your margarine and brown sugar really good.
Until you have a nice pasty mixture like this.
If you don’t get you a pinch of that I’m going to be very disappointed in you.
Anytime you are making something with brown sugar, it’s very bad luck not to taste it.
This is according to the ancient wisdom of Christydom.
Lay your banana on its side and cut a slit in it but don’t go through the bottom of the peel.
Stuff it with your brown sugar mixture.
Set it on the grill. It doesn’t have to be any special temperature, just whatever you have it set on for what you are cooking is fine.
Watch it ….
Your banana is cooking to ooey gooey goodness.
Almost done but not quite. Lets let it get nice and black.
NOW we’re talkin’!
This is delicious served alongside ice cream. You can eat it out of the peel or…
Take it out and chop it up a bit to use as a topping for your ice cream. The ice cream featured here is my sister in law, Tina’s recipe for homemade custard that she got from her Mama Dove. Anything from a Southern Woman named Mama Dove is good – especially with grilled bananas!
Ingredients
- 1 Cup brown sugar (light or dark)
- 1/2 C Margarine or butter
- 5-6 bananas
- 1 tsp of cinnamon (optional but delicious)
Instructions
- With a fork, mash together brown sugar and margarine until well blended (add cinnamon if desired). Lay each banana on its side and cut a slit along the length, being careful not to go through the bottom peel. Stuff with mixture. Place on grill along with other food and cook until blackened. Serve warm with ice cream or eat on it's own!

There are countless other ways Southerners are weird but I’m having a hard time coming up with them because – well, weirdness is so very normal to us. This is where you come in.
How are we weird? What are some of the strange things Southerners do that only make sense below the Mason Dixon Line? Don’t worry about chiming in if you are of the Northern Persuasion, we’re really good at laughing at ourselves and would love your take on us. Just remember to be gentle coz we love y’all and we hope to drag you down here and feed you one day and get you to tell us how your Mawmaw did things back in her kitchen.
Gratefully,
Christy

I love bbq potato chip sandwiches with ketsup on them.Also fried bologna with kraft cheese.Also times was tight growing up and mom would line gram. crackers in a 13x pan.Then make vanilla pudding with peanut butter and layer it on top then sliced bananas.On top of that place gam. crackers on the pudding and bananas and then freeze them.Frozen pudding sandwiches YUMMYYYYYYYYYYYY
Any chance of talking your sister-in-law into sharing Mama Dove’s frozen custard recipe? Big grin. Can’t hurt to ask!
Those look divine! Next time my hubby goods out I’m gonna have to get him to cook these. Oh and Christy I just loooooove the plates u used today!
Ever tried a tomato and mayonaise sandwich? The tomato has to be right off the vine. We call this a mater and mineese sandwich.
You can also prepare your bananas but instead of the brown sugar mix, put chocolate chips and mini marshmallows in there. I wrap in foil then grill. Great camping or bbq desert.
I like buttermilk with salt and pepper. and buttermilk with cornbread crust in it and eat with a spoon. mayo on 1 slice pnut butter on other slice and banana sliced long ways in the middle
Southern weirdness? How about fried squirrel smothered in gravy, and served over buttermilk biscuits for breakfast. I could count on waking up to that every Saturday morning during the late fall and winter as a child. Not because my parents couldn’t afford “regular” breakfast food, but because it was what my Daddy had ate as child. To him, it was a special memory that he was passing along to his kids. My sheltered children still can’t believe that their Mama (who now spends a small fortune feeding birds and squirrels each month) used to eat the little critters.
WOW! “Those nanners” sound yummy! How much fun I’ve had reading everyone’s replies. This made me smile. I’m a country girl at heart. Growing up I used to have “baloney” sandwiches with mustard and a “pop” with peanuts dumped into it! Nothing better. I don’t think I could touch any of that today, but I do have fond memories of it growin’ up! Thanks for the walk down memory lane. Your blog is great!
Gal you know I love this idea! Those look delicious!!
I make some fried in a pan with butter, brown sugar and coconut I think you’ll like too. Try ‘em sometime!
This is something close to what we do when camping. We call them banana boats. You peel the top half of the peel up and scoop out a little of the banana. Then you add chocolate chips, nut, raisins…anything your heart desires! Place the top peel back on and wrap in foil. Cook for about 20 – 35 minutes on or near the coals! Yummy! Pure heaven and oh so easy. Wow, now I want to make one now!!! I will try your version too, as it looks yummo!
Thanks,
I have never tried this but it looks delicious! Can’t wait until we get moved and a new grill.
Bananas never go to waste in my house…just look in my freezer. When my kids were little they ate them like popcicles. I use frozen bananas to make banana bread or banana cake with.
Bet Elvis would have loved this. A true southern woman knows the difference between a hissie fit and a conniption fit and when to use them
I love it!! There is a difference between the two. I drive a Honda Fit and I had my father-in-law cut me some stickers that say “Hissy”. So now I am the only person in the world to drive a “Hissy Fit”
This is not about the nanners, but I just had to let you know, I have passed your Grilled Chicken Tenderloins around, after trying them, and EVERYONE says they are great!!! Me included. One gal didn’t have lime juice and substitued margarhetti (sp) mix and said it was wonderful!!
Oh Christy…southerns aren’t weird, we’re just beyond ordinary comprehension! However, some of the “intense genius” in my family involves a peanutbutter-banana-mayo-sweetpickle sandwich (what are you thinking, mom?) and a grilled cheese with scrambled egg-bacon-tomato-mayo (breakfast, lunch AND dinner on one plate!) Our southern rule seems to be: just keep adding tastes until it’s larapin’ good!
My Great-grandmother (who arrived in what is now Oklahoma in a covered wagon in 1892) used to love a dish we called lime-green jello salad. Every holiday, somebody made it and brought it. It is lime jello with pieces of pineapple and cream cheese blended into it. I think there was some special way you had to prepare the pineapple so it wouldn’t prevent the jello from setting, too. The best way to make this is so that the cream cheese is still in small chunks, floating in the clear green jello. If you mix it too much, it turns an opaque light green.
I have that recipe passed down by my Grandmother and I make it every Thanksgiving by tradition !!
The special way to use pineapple is to use canned. Cooking the pineapple kills the enzyme that keeps the gelatin from gelatin-ing.;^)
I will never forget one time when I traveled up north, we stopped and ate at an Outback. When I ordered sweet tea to drink, I was told they did not serve “flavored” tea. I remember thinking, sweet tea is not flavored tea, raspberry tea is flavored tea. I knew right then that I would never be able to make it up north.
I remember in the mid-90s many restaurants around here stopped serving sweet tea for a while, forcing you to sweeten it yourself. They must’ve figured, “It works up north, we’ll make these Southerners do it, too!” Nope. Didn’t last. Southerners don’t want to have to dump their own sugar into cold tea and wait for it to slowly dissolve. We know better!
Yeah, Yankees have their own weird food habits, too. My husband is half-Yankee on his father’s side and he puts ketchup on *everything*! If it’s fried, it definitely gets doused with ketchup!
Does anyone eat cheddar cheese with their apple pie? How about “gravy bites” (gravy over plain bread)?
Southern children mind their manners when they call adults “Miss Emily” or “Mr. John” — as though using a title makes using the first name OK.
In addition to waving (when behind the wheel), one can simply nod. Failure to do something is really rude, especially in rural areas.
Some other weird southern things:
-I carry a pocket book, not a purse.
-I eat breakfast, dinner and supper.
-I sit on a sofa, not a couch.
-I love fried bologna sandwiches with cheese, mustard and mayo.
-I also still eat fried SPAM! You heard me. SPAM! Smells great when you fry it and tastes great when you eat a fried SPAM sandwich with cheese and mustard.
-I would love a coke, what kind of coke, diet Dr. Pepper.
-Vidalia Onions!!! Casserole, (YUM!), sandwich with mayo AND peanut butter (Daddy eats that), grilled and baked, they are so sweet, they are like candy!
-”Hey” is a greeting not something you feed a horse.
-Sitting on the front porch and watch traffic while shelling peas. What a way to spend a Sunday afternoon!
I think that is all of the southern weirdness I can think of.
BTW, I will start working on a recipe for YooHoo ice cream if you keep saying wonderful things about my Mama Dove.
TTFN, Tina
I forgot grits!!! They are yummy for breakfast, dinner, and supper!!
All my brothers and sisters (5 in total) still remember the fried boloney sandwiches we used to eat – just fried meat, mayo and Mrs. Baird’s soft white bread; sometimes the boys would add raw onions.
Our favorite staple, however, was fried potatoes. My Daddy would buy potatoes in a 100 pound burlap bag and by the end of the month, they would be all eaten – we loved fried potatoes with ketcup and real butter – mix ketcup and butter together to make a sauce. French sauce “Texas” style.
Another treat was homemade cornbread (crackers in a pinch) and homemade buttermilk – crumble cornbread in a large glass, pour on the cold buttermilk – yummy.
Last night I made your banana pudding, Christy. Was it good! Loved the sauce so much that I will double the recipe next time.
Re the grilled bananas, I’ve been making these for years. In the winter time when you don’t want to light up the grill, I make these in the microwave – split the bananas, add brown sugar, etc. – put in some mini marshmallows and some semi-sweet chocolate chips – gently close the banana and nuke them until banana is soft and other ingredients are melted – watch them closely re timing. Taste as good as Banana Fosters served in Brennan’s – New Orleans and much cheaper. If you have any leftover, try these over pancakes the next morning (remove goodies from peel, of course). Love this forum subject matter – sweet southern memories.
Love your recipes! I’m going to make those bananas soon! Of course I will put some pecans in the mixture too. Everything’s better with pecans!
A dollop of real mayo, cottage cheese, lots of pepper – mix and eat – delicious! (My first boyfriend’s mother taught me this one.)
As children we had mashed potatoes and canned peaches (Mom always had to have something sweet with our main meal!) for every supper or at least it seemed like it, probably because both were cheap and there were seven of us to feed. One of us, no one remembers who, started eating our peaches dipped in the mashed potatoes. Ok, quit saying “Yuck!” Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it, although my husband thinks it’s weird when I eat this! I try not to do it in public….LOL
Salt on apples, watermelon or cantaloupe – wouldn’t eat them without it!
Ok ya’ll first off I was born & raised in Missouri,I have a southern name and spellin, I am named after the movie “Gone with the wind” No not Scarlet,:)
but Mellany. But many believe that in a past life I was southern. Now I love sweet tea. Fried green onion sandwiches.
Tomato’s fresh out of the garden sliced up with hot bacon grease poured over the top with salt & pepper. I et yup I say et instead of ate ketchup sandwiches as a kid cornbread with cracklins(chunks of pork fat)I went to Birmingham AL a few years back and they said I fit in fine but folks up here say I talk funny; by the way Jim & Nicks BBQ in AL, best sweet tea I ever drank! A loaf of bread and sliced onion at every meal. Pickled green tomato’s the small one’s to small to fry. A pinch of salt into anything sweet and a pinch of sugar into anything savory Salt and sugar on my grapefruit. Bacon and grape jelly sandwiches. Corn bread and white syurp or brown if thats what ya have. Cottage cheese with lots of black pepper. Butter,sugar and cinnimon sandwiches. Oh and one last thing my Momma as a child et in her lunch congealed gravy sandwiches from the nights before meal her Momma would put it in a loaf pan an in the icebox and slice it the next mornin and put it on bread. I LOVE gravy,but have never et it this way. Gotta go now I’m hungry.
My aunt and her kids and grandchildren love Jim and Nick’s. Next time I’m in Trussville I plan on having lunch there. They have not steered us wrong about a restaurant yet.
Speaking of Southern weirdness – my husband was completely baffled to find when we were newly married that I saved bacon grease in an old jar in the refrigerator. Seriously! Did he expect me to throw it away!?
Love reading about all the different sandwiches. We ate a scrambled egg sandwich with Mayo on it. And I love salt on all of my fruits. Yet I don’t eat salt on my salads. Peanut butter,butter and banana sandwiches are a staple at my house. Good for breakfast. lol
Please let the readers post their strange sandwiches from childhood or that they still like to eat.
Oh forgot, a fresh tomato and Mayo sandwich with salt and pepper can’t be beat.
I grew up eating most of the sandwiches mentioned here and never thought they were strange! Scrambled egg. Check. Baloney. Check. Banana & mayonnaise. Check. About the only thing I never ate was peanut butter and jelly. I was an adult before I discovered the joys of that sandwich!
The strangest sandwich I ever heard of was collard greens and mayonnaise. I think it was in the White Trash Cooking cookbook. They recommended you eat it standing over the kitchen sink!
Hey, All! I thought we were the only ones putting salt on our watermelon. But, seriously, what’s not to love about mayonnaise and, well, everything?!? Thanks for the opportunity, Christy, to brag on our Southern Specialties!
What about that nasty old “potted meat” stuff we would spread on our sandwiches when I was little! I can’t even think about it! Or those little sausages in a can? oh gross. or sardines?
now on to the good stuff…..peanut butter and banana sandwiches! (with or without mayo) and also fried bologna on your biscuits and also plain chips on your barbeque sandwich.
Ha!
I can’t ever remember having a banana sandwich lol, but potted meat yep, vienna sausages, pickled bologna etc. I salt watermelon and apples and can’t wait to salt and pepper cantelope next time I get some , if nothing else to see my hubbys face when I do lol.
My mamaw used to eat green bean sandwiches, I have had a few of them myself.
Hey, y’all! Have loved reading all of your comments!! Don B’s comment reminded me of how my Mama would crumble some cornbread (only some of my family called it “corn pone”) and then pour buttermilk over it. We also had homemade buttermilk ice cream.
Something I just thought of…our Yankee friends think we are weird when we talk about pecans–as in “pah-kahns–the RIGHT way to say it–NOT “pee-cans”!!! Isn’t that right, y’all?!
Back to the cornbread or corn pone–my Pawpaw loved what he called “hoe cakes,” or fried cornbread. We ate these with syrup!
We also sometimes dipped our fried fish into syrup or yellow mustard!
More later, y’all!
You are totally correct on pecans! I have never said Pee-cans! I wonder where that started?
Cindy…a Michigan girl transplanted in the deep south!
southern weirdness….Counting every pint, quart, gallon of everything you ever picked, canned or froze….I remember being given the opportunity to pick in someones sweet corn patch…I could have all I wanted…I just was asked to count every ear I picked. 400 to be exact! (my children still remember this day! LOL)…this way the owner would know how many ears that patch produced. One time we put 150 apple cobblers in the freezer. You southerners understand this…I must admit I was a bit of a city girl with southern ties but after returning to my roots I learned you count everything and measure the rain…for there are a southerners “Bragging Rights”….
Yummy! I love bananas! One of my favorite fruits. In South America, where I was born, they make this really yummy banana fritter. I still haven’t learned how to do it yet but this has me motivated to ask my Dad for the recipe.
Plus, bananas, butter & brown sugar…always great in my book! Now I just need to go fire up the grill!
My cousin and I used to eat mustard and onion sandwiches all the time. The peanuts in the Coke, as someone said earlier, was good too. I love salt on my cantaloupe, watermelon, grapefruit, apples and oranges. But I can’t wait to try the nanners. Yummers…
I just made your biscuit doughnuts and blogged about them. Delicious.
Love this post and all of the comments!! I’ve never grilled bananas but (half my family is Colombian) I have had grilled plantains with melted mozzarella. I’m telling ya, it’s divine.
As for banana and mayo sandwiches…I’m not going there. lol. I did grow up eating french fry sandwiches, which my dad always made. Recently found out that he learned it from his mom. French fries, mayo, ketchup, salt on white. yum.
Recently heard someone say they didn’t know what a fried Bologna sandwich was. What?! Who raised these folks
All right ladies and gentlemen…some of your “southern ways” are in the north too! We moved from Michigan and lived in Georgia (west of Atlanta) and a year in Alabama (smack dab between Birmingham and Montgomery) for the last year.
Similarities:
1.Mayo and tomato sandwiches. Grandpa eating onions like an apple, he always was it down with a glass of milk.
2. Fried bologna sandwhiches, except we used ketchup instead of mayo.
3.Grandma has been eating baked beans on bread for years. I like those.
Things I find weird:
1.Red hot-dogs. What is up with that?????? I cannot mentally get over the weird sight of that.
2.Peanut butter sandwiches with HONEY????? That caught me off guard. I had never heard of them before!
3.Pickle Sickles….who thought of freezing pickle juice and licking it like a pop-sicle? That turns my stomach! And so many kids came to the concession stand during the Little League baseball games to get one! I never knew people ate pickles so much or froze the juice! You guys (northern expression for y’all) love pickles more than anyone I’ve ever met! Not that it’s a bad thing…just different. We eat pickles…but always had more cucumbers in the garden than we could use! I’m guessing everyone down here keeps a tight grip on their garden cukes!LOL!
4. Sweet tea. I know, I know. Near blasphemy to hate it…but I do. Sorry. My redemption is that our daughter is hooked on it like it is the nectar of the Gods! I had it as a child back home. We were visiting a great aunt and mom said to eat or drink whatever we were served. I loved tea. We always had unsweetened ice tea. Always. So I eagerly answered her that I would like some tea when she asked us that hot afternoon. I’ll never forget choking down that concoction! I also remember the sheer terror I felt when she asked me if I would like more and I was afraid she’d refill my glass and I would have to start over!
5. Bar-b-q at every corner or bait and tackle! LOL! We like our bar-b-q but evidently not as much as y’all. I’ve seen it at gas stations! In Michigan you were never more than a few miles from water, that’s true of b-b-q down here. Both in Georgia and Alabama! But you know your stuff!
That’s all I can think of for the moment! We really are more similar than most think! I hope I haven’t offended ya with my yankee observations. It’s been fun moving around and absorbing other “cultures” and uniqueness! Hope you had a little fun reading about how odd red hot-dogs and pickle sickles are to me!
Christy…thanks for the post on your T.V. debut! I wanted to watch but had to pick our girl up from Girl Scouts last night! It was great seeing it! Can’t wait to see you “teach the world to make banana pudding”! Love ya and your posts! Thanks for making us feel like old friends and sharing your heart and soul with us!
Christy, when I did a search for grilled bananas a few days ago, little did I know I was going to find an addiction! And I’m not talkin’ ’bout the nanners! No, THIS WEBSITE is a treasure! I’ve been back every single day and can’t get enough of your recipes, or your wonderful comments about all things southern. I’m going to recommend the site to a group of internet friends who are far-flung (from near Houston, to waaaaaay up in Alberta, CA) and I know (now that the more northern of the bunch has learned what “y’all” means and is s’posed to sound like) they’ll love it too.
By the by… I was wondering if you still intend to post the recipe for your sister-in-law’s (a fellow “Tina”, she MUST be a GREAT person!) recipe for homemade custard… sounds too good to be true with the bananas. I’ve searched the index and the ‘fill-in’ search, but no luck.
Keep sharing, and thank you!!!
[...] Signature dish? Yes, it would have to be banana pudding because that is the dish that started Southern Plate. Beyond that I’ve always enjoyed wowing [...]
this looks delicious, I just have one question, cause I couldn’t tell from the pics. Did you removed the banana or you put the mixture over it? And the butter with brown sugar makes a good caramel also a little bit of vanilla would work with it. Hmm yammy!!
I’d have to say I’m sticking with the Banana Theme here, but Peel a banana and cut it long ways, on the cut side spread mayonaise and top with any chopped nuts, peanuts is the usual. When I tell people about this they look at me like I’m crazy but I learned this from residents in a nursing home I used to work in, and I thought it was crazy also, but I tried it and It’s awesome! Finally when people try it, they understand the flavors work perfect together!
Little brown sugar on this Justini is pretty tasty too.
Justini, my mama used to take bananas, peel them, cut them in half, spread mayonnaise on them and roll them in crushed peanuts, too!! She called them banana croquettes. She would usually refrigerate them before serving them….on my word!!! Shear heaven!
Souther than I am I hear people eat apple or pineapple sandwiches. White bread, mayo and whichever fruit cranks your rototiller.
I have an older friend who was stationed “up North” when he was in the army. He tells the story of sitting in a diner one morning and he asked for sweet milk to drink. He says the waitress looked at him like he was crazy. She then put a glass of milk in front of him and a container of sugar and said, “There’s the milk and there’s the sugar. You make it as sweet as you want it!” LOL–Bless her heart!
A sandwich of american cheese, pineapple slices and mayo on white bread. Anybody heard of that?
I think my Mother in law has mentioned that and I know Mama has!
You can also peel the bananas, add same ingredients and cook then in the oven.
[...] LaTisha – Grilled Bananas [...]
My favorite “wierd” sandwich was peanut butter, mayonaise and dill pickles. It really tasted great when I was growing up. When I was pregnant I had to have peanut butter and strawberry jam sandwiches grilled. Now that was the BEST!!! All gooey and hot….I havent had one in a long time, but then I haven’t been pregnant in a long time either.
[...] mushy waiting for the bananas to be done. And while I have seen bananas grilled alone in their peels with great results, even with toppings, the skewers make for a lovely [...]
OK…I am from NW Mo and when I lived in San Diego,Calif, people teased me about my “southern accent”….then hubby was transferred to Jax., Florida I got called a Yankee!
I am a born & bred farm girl….I say Pahkon, I eat fried bologna, salt my watermelon and pepper my cantaloupe, shelled peas,broke green beans and stemmed strawberries on the front porch Sun.afternoon and had scrambled rggs and fried potatoes (with ketchup on both) for Sunday supper….Oh and we put peas on mashed potaotes and called them “hen`s nests”
Mama ate cornbread &milk or saltines & milk. We bought a gunny sack of potatoes every month….well there was 5of us kids. We had fried chicken, mashed potaoes & gravy,green beans/corn/peas, jello (of some kind) and pie/cake evry Sunday dinner and it was usually at Grandmas. Grandma and granddad lived about 45 min. from us, we went directly after church and changed our clothes in the car on the drive….mom & dad kept their Sunday clothes on
Now for the grilled bananas…..not too sure about this, bit I won`t knock it til I try it.
Margaret
What a wonderful childhood full of memories!!! Thank you so much for sharing Margaret, it made me smile!
