Ingredients
Vegetable oil, for brushing
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large baguette, sourdough, ciabatta or Italian loaf
2 bunches purple, red or green grapes (about 1 pound)
Two (8-ounce) wheels of brie (or one 16-ounce wheel)
Directions
- Light a grill or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grill grates or grill pan.
- Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and brush the cut sides with a little oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the grapes with their stems still attached in a medium bowl. Coat the grapes with a little oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Brush the brie with a little oil, as well.
- Once the grill is heated, grill the bread until charred on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove and slice into pieces.
- Add the grape bunches to the grill and cook, turning every couple of minutes, until some of them begin to burst and they turn golden in color, 8 to 10 minutes. About 5 minutes before the grapes are done, add the brie to the grill.
- If using two 8-ounce wheels of brie, grill until you see nice grill marks, 1 to 2 minutes per side. If using one 16-ounce wheel of brie, grill until you see nice grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Remove the grilled grapes and brie and arrange on a board or platter along with the grilled bread.
- Slather a little of the gooey, grilled brie on a piece of bread and top with a couple of the grilled grapes picked from the stem.
