Introduction

Fresh, juicy Utah peaches meet smoky grilled flavor in this easy and irresistible Salted Honey Grilled Peaches recipe. Using the Arteflame grill, we create a caramelized, seared finish with the salted honey glaze melting into every golden bite. This is simple grilling perfection—no pots, pans, or ovens needed.

Ingredients

• 4 ripe Utah peaches, halved and pitted

The Sear Makes the Steak, And Arteflame Makes the Sear

Why settle for low-temperature searing when you can achieve steakhouse-quality results with an Arteflame? Gas grills take longer, drying out your steak, while the Arteflame sears at 1000°F in just one minute, locking in juices for perfection.

Instructions

Step 1: Light the Arteflame Grill

1. Place three paper napkins in the fire bowl.
2. Pour vegetable oil over the napkins until saturated.
3. Stack dry, seasoned firewood on top of the napkins.
4. Light the napkins and let the fire catch.
5. Wait approximately 20 minutes for the cooktop to heat up and establish heat zones.

Step 2: Prep the Peaches and Honey Glaze

1. While the grill is heating, cut peaches in half and remove the pits.
2. Brush the flat cut sides with melted butter.
3. In a small bowl, mix the raw honey and sea salt. Add cinnamon if using.

Step 3: Grill the Peaches

1. Place the peach halves cut-side down near the center of the flat top cooktop where it's medium hot.
2. Sear for 3–5 minutes or until caramelized with nice grill marks.
3. Flip the peaches skin-side down and spoon a bit of the salted honey over the cut side while they heat through another 2–3 minutes.

Step 4: Serve

1. Remove from the grill and drizzle with any leftover honey glaze.
2. Garnish with mint and serve warm, optionally topped with vanilla ice cream.

Tips

• Use just-ripe peaches—they hold up best on the grill without becoming mushy.
• For extra smokiness, grill the peaches closer to the center for a deeper sear.
• Melt butter directly on the cooktop to intensify flavor.
• If the honey glaze starts to over caramelize, move the peaches to the outer edge where it's cooler.

Variations

• Maple Bacon Peaches: Swap honey for maple syrup and top with grilled bacon crumbles for sweet-savory contrast.
• Spicy Chili Honey Peaches: Add a pinch of chili flakes to the honey glaze for heat lovers.
• Vanilla Bean Peaches: Stir fresh scraped vanilla bean into the honey glaze for a floral, luxe touch.
• Smoky Whiskey Peaches: Mix a splash of whiskey into the glaze for added depth and complexity.
• Lemon Herb Peaches: Fold in a bit of lemon zest and fresh thyme leaves for bright and earthy flavor.

Best pairings

• Grilled pork chops or ribs
• Fresh burrata and arugula salad
• Chilled rosé or sweet Riesling
• Vanilla bean ice cream or Greek yogurt
• Toasted pound cake or grilled brioche
