Yields: 4 cups
Ingredients
- ¼ cup vegetable oil (60ml)
- ½ cup popcorn (125ml)
- ¼ cup white sugar (60ml)
- Salt to taste
Directions
- Preheat barbeque to high heat. No steamboats as high as she goes.
- Set a cast iron pot on the grill to preheat for 10 minutes (keep barbeque lid closed).
- Alternatively, if you have a side burner, place the pan over high heat for 3 minutes and continue with recipe.
- Place the oil in the pan and heat for 2 minutes.
- Add 3 kernels of popcorn to the pan.
- Wait for the kernels to pop. When they do pop, add the rest of the popcorn.
- Once popcorn sizzles, pour in the sugar.
- Using a wooden spoon, stir to evenly mix the corn and the sugar.
- Place the lid on the pan and shake using barbeque gloves or a dry towel.
- Allow popcorn to continue cooking, while constantly shaking for 4 minutes. Once the popping has subsided, remove popcorn from the barbeque or side burner and pour onto a baking tray.
- While the popcorn is still super hot, sprinkle with salt, so the salt sticks to the corn.
