Preheat your grill to maintain a temperature of 450-500°F. Carefully oil the grill grates. Remove the spreadable butter from the refrigerator to soften.Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut the sweet potatoes into 1-inch-wide wedges. Place in a large bowl; drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and the smoky spice blend. Toss to coat. Halve the tomatoes. Cut off and discard any stem ends from the green beans. In a separate bowl, combine the barbecue sauce, mayonnaise, and as much of the gochujang as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be.
