How to Make Blackstone Glazed Carrots

How to Store Leftover Glazed Carrots
I prefer glazed carrots fresh because they are the perfect texture and the glaze is a little thicker, but you can store leftovers if needed. Transfer any leftover carrots to an airtight container and allow to cool completely.
FRIDGE: Store carrots in the refrigerator for three to four days.
FREEZER: These carrots can be frozen for 2-3 months. However, keep in mind that the carrots may be a little mushy after they are thawed and reheated.
Variations for Blackstone Glazed Carrots
While I like to keep this recipe pretty simple, there are a lot of ways you can adapt it to have different flavors and fit your personal preferences. To reduce the amount of refined sugar, use some maple syrup in place of the brown sugar. Add extra cozy flavor to this root veggie recipe with spices like cinnamon and even some nutmeg.
Fresh herbs like rosemary and thyme add great flavor to the recipe as well. Other spices like black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder can all be used on Blackstone glazed carrots too.
What to Serve with Blackstone Glazed Carrots
You can pair these carrots with just about anything! I love to serve them with some smoked chicken thighs, smoked pork loin, and Blackstone pork chops.
It also goes well with other veggie side dishes like grilled vegetables or grilled foil packet green beans. This is a great Thanksgiving side too! Serve it alongside some smoked turkey or a cider glazed ham.
