Place potato wedges in a bowl and drizzle with olive oil, toss to coat. Sprinkle oiled wedges with Southernmost Blend and toss to season.
Using tongs place sweet potatoes skin side down onto the hot grill going cross ways with the grates, so they do not fall into the grill.
After about 3-5 minutes, or when you begin to see black spots, you want to turn them onto one side.
After another couple of minutes or when you begin to see black grill marks, rotate them to their third side, that hasn’t been exposed grill surface, for another couple of minutes and they’re ready to be served.
