Show:  Throwdown with Bobby Flay

3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F or prepare barbeque grill.

Cut off the ends of the bananas. Place the unpeeled bananas on an ungreased cookie sheet or in a baking pan or place the bananas on the lightly oiled rack of barbeque grill.
