Grilled Bananas Faux-Foster

• 1 stick butter
• 1/2 cup dark brown sugar
• 4 ripe bananas
• 1/4 cup rum (optional)
• 4 slices pound cake
• Orange rounds for garnish

1. Heat half the grill to high, leaving other half unlit. Place cast-iron skillet on hot side of grill. Add butter and brown sugar to skillet and stir together until melted. Move to cool side of grill.
2. Slice bananas in half lengthwise, leaving peel on. Brush fruit side of each banana with butter-sugar mixture. Place bananas, fruit side down, on hot side of grill for 3 minutes. Flip to peel side and allow to cook 3 minutes more. Remove bananas to cutting board and let cool slightly.
3. Peel bananas and add to skillet. Remove skillet from grill and add rum. (Don't add rum over lit grill, or it might ignite and burn you.) Place skillet back on grill and spoon butter-sugar mixture over bananas.
4. Meanwhile, place slices of pound cake on grill and toast for 1 minute on each side. Remove cake slices to plate, spoon banana mixture over the top, and garnish with orange round. Serve hot, with ice cream.
