This sounds great rainee - and I just got a bag of peaches off my cousin's tree

What temp do you recommend for my grill on this one?
Also, should it be indirect heat?

 

[Raine]

I'd say med-med high. Either way should be ok, direct or indirect.

Followup on the peaches:

I wanted grill marks on the top and bottom both, so I did not fill the cavities, however I did glaze them quite heavily on top and bottom. When they were done, I put them on a platter and filled each cavity with 4-5 big plump blueberries. Then I covered it with foil, while we ate our BBQ dinner. When dessert time came, the blueberries had heated and expanded a bit, which looked beautiful. I served them with regular whipped cream and they were spectacular!!!!
Next time, I'm thinking of filling them with fresh raspberries.
