Made this for casual bbq party with good friends, they loved it. It's simple and fun to have dessert on the grill instead of heating up the house in the summer.

Our fruit cobbler is a tasty way to enjoy plump summer berries. Use a cast iron or enamel-coated cast iron skillet, and don’t pile on the ingredients—just fill to a little more than halfway, or they will bubble over.
Yield: Makes 6 to 8 servings
