I have discovered I can never have a traditional s’mores again after having a Grilled Caramel S’Mores. If you are entertaining this summer you must make sure to put these supercharged Grilled Caramel S’Mores on your menu. 

This recipe was inspired by a little stop to my local BJ’s Wholesale Club over the weekend. I was strolling through the store checking out all of their amazing summer entertaining items when I stumbled upon this s’mores-making kit and box of ingredients. We are huge s’mores fans so I knew I had to get them – plus, we are having family stay with us at our beach house multiple times during the Summer and I thought it would be a great activity to do with the kids, or while entertaining guests.

The Hershey’s S’mores grilling accessories kit included: 

  • Grilling Basket: make up to 4 yummy, gooey, chocolaty s’mores at a time; the long handle keeps everyone away from the flames
  • Melting Tray: grills up to 4 s’mores at a time; the tray sits on the grill and warms graham crackers and melts chocolate and marshmallows all at once, quickly and mess-free
  • Extension Fork: extends from 23 inches to 31.5 inches; for use over a campfire, grill or outdoor fireplace; safely roasts marshmallows for s’mores, but can also be used to cook hot dogs, flip burgers and more.

I also bought the Hershey’s S’mores kit which included everything I’ll need to create 36 deliciously crafted s’mores. The kit came cconveniently packaged in a resealable box for repeat use and easy pantry storage and contained 18 Hershey’s Milk Chocolate Bars, 4 packages of graham crackers, and 1 large bag of marshmallows.

Since I was making Grilled Caramel S’Mores, I decided to give the grilling basket and melting tray a try. Somewhat like a test run before using them at the beach house in front of my guests.

I prepared my s’mores by topping two graham cracker pieces with chocolate and marshmallow before wrapping in aluminum foil and placing in the basket and warming over the hot grill.

This version of the grilled s’mores produced a beautifully made s’mores that was ready in minutes and needed very little hands-on time. After having great success with the grilling basket I couldn’t wait to give the warming tray a try and this is where the caramel came in.

I placed the crackers, marshmallow, chocolate and caramel on the tray and closed the lid. In about five minutes the chocolate and caramel had melted, the cracker had warmed and the marshmallow was brown and puffy. I squeezed the two sides of the cracker together and my heart just melted. It was truly the best s’mores I have ever had.

It was gooey, crunchy and had a hint of smokey flavor – which is may absolute FAVORITE part for grilling. And then there was the caramel. Oh, the caramel.

So, so, so delish. Now back to my shopping … 

While at BJ’s Wholesale Club I also found so many other items that I would love to have on my patio and outdoor space. My dream patio will one day include a Vision Ceramic Charcoal Smoker like this one pictured below.

I also spotted this awesome 2.5 gallon beverage dispenser. What hostess wouldn’t need one of these?

And, while checking out the outdoor collection on-line, I couldn’t help but totally crush on this Fire Pit Chat Set. This is simply gorgeous.
