Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: Approx 30 min

Ingredients:

  • 16 oz. Brie Wheel
  • 10 oz. Grape Tomatoes, cut in halves or thirds
  • 2 tbsp minced Garlic
  • 1 tsp Oregano
  • 1 pinch of red pepper flakes
  • 1/2 cup Balsamic Vinegar
  • 3 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 c. thinly sliced Basil, for garnish
  • French Bread, sliced thin for serving

Preparation:

  1. In a small saucepan, mix balsamic vinegar with brown sugar over medium heat, stirring constantly until sugar has dissolved. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and simmer until glaze is reduced by half, about 10-15 minutes. Glaze should coat the back of a spoon. Let cool and pour into a jar with a lid; store in refrigerator.
  2. Fire up your pellet grill to 400°F 
  3. In an 8 inch cast iron, coat with a small amount of oil then add Brie, (you can take off the top rind if desired, but you don’t have to!) cook on the grill for 10 minutes.
  4. While the Brie is cooking, slice tomatoes and mix with garlic in a bowl. Add red pepper flakes, oregano, salt and pepper to taste. Mix. 
  5. Add on top of Brie and cook an additional 5-10 minutes. Remove from heat, top with basil and drizzle with balsamic glaze. Serve with sliced french bread.
