Steps:
- Light a grill or preheat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Clean and oil the grill grates or grill pan.
- Slice the baguette in half lengthwise and brush the cut sides with a little oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- Place the grapes with their stems still attached in a medium bowl. Coat the grapes with a little oil. Season with salt and pepper.
- Brush the brie with a little oil, as well.
- Once the grill is heated, grill the bread until charred on both sides, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Remove and slice into pieces.
- Add the grape bunches to the grill and cook, turning every couple of minutes, until some of them begin to burst and they turn golden in color, 8 to 10 minutes. About 5 minutes before the grapes are done, add the brie to the grill.
- If using two 8-ounce wheels of brie, grill until you see nice grill marks, 1 to 2 minutes per side. If using one 16-ounce wheel of brie, grill until you see nice grill marks, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
- Remove the grilled grapes and brie and arrange on a board or platter along with the grilled bread.
- Slather a little of the gooey, grilled brie on a piece of bread and top with a couple of the grilled grapes picked from the stem.
CEDAR PLANK-GRILLED BRIE WITH BERRIES
This recipe takes baked brie to a whole new level by replacing jam with fresh fruit, herbs and nuts and infusing it all with a touch of smokey flavor from a cedar plank. Keep a close eye on it when grilling - the bottom rind will fully melt if cooked too long, causing the brie to lose its shape and release all the warm gooey cheese!

Steps:
- Put a cedar grilling plank in a large baking dish or on a rimmed baking sheet and cover with water; let soak at least 1 hour. Preheat a grill to medium to medium high.
- Put the blackberries in a medium bowl and lightly crush with a fork. Add the strawberries, vinegar, sugar, thyme, a big pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Stir, then let stand at least 5 minutes.
- Drain the cedar plank. Trim just the top rind off the brie. Place the brie on the plank and top with the berry mixture, reserving some of the juices for serving. Sprinkle with the almonds.
- Place the plank on the grill and cover. Cook until the brie is softened and warmed through, 9 to 11 minutes (keep an eye out during the last few minutes in case the brie starts to melt out of the rind). Gently press the side of the brie to see if it's ready; it should yield to pressure. Drizzle with the reserved berry juices and sprinkle with a few thyme leaves. Serve warm with crackers.
