On the fourth of July my family and I had a cook out. Dad didn't make a campfire this year to roast our marshmallows over, so we decided to cook the marshmallows in the grill. But when we opened the grill, marshmallow goo was all over the inside! We got the marshmallows off the sticks, but half of the marshmallow stuck to the stick! What to do...
Then we thought we could try putting them on a grilling plank. We didn't know if this would work, but we had nothing to loose. So we put the marshmallows onto the grill planks. We waited about a minute, then Mom opened the grill, they were nice and brown and crisp on the outside and gooey on the inside. There was no marshmallow goo on the grill, and we didn't loose half our marshmallow on the stick. Plus they were delicious and now have become a family favorite!
