-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 large firm-ripe anjou or Bartlett pears
3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 Tablespoons granulated sugar
1/3 cup evaporated milk
2 Tablespoons firmly packed light brown sugar
2 teaspoons unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Preheat the grill and the grill topper to medium heat. When ready to cook,
spray the rack--off the grill-- with nonstick cooking spray.

Peel the pears, halve them lengthwise, and core. With a sharp knife, cut a
very thin slice from the rounded side of each pear half so it will lie flat
on the grill topper. In a medium bowl, toss the pear halves with the lime
juice and granulated sugar.

Grill the pear halves on the grill topper for 4 minutes. Turn the pears
over, drizzle with any remaining lime juice mixture, and grill for 5 minutes
or until tender.

Meanwhile, in small saucepan, combine the eveaporated milk, brown sugar,
butter, and vanilla. Cook directly on the grill ont he stovetop over medium
heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a gentle boil. Cook
until the sauce is smootha nd slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Divide
the pears among 4 plates, drizzle with the butterscotch sauce, and serve hot
or warm.
