One of my favorite new
ways to cook vegetables on the bbq is not with
rotisseries. My new favorite grill accessory is a
perforated stainless steel vegetable pan. You can find
these pans everywhere that you find bbq grill parts and
grill accessories.
Some of you may already
grill your vegetables in the oven all year round. Well
after grilling our first set of vegetables on our
barbecue recently, we've decided that this is the only
way to do vegetables. No more boiling or steaming on top
of the stove. No more roasting in the oven unless it is
a very cold winter night. We are sold on grilling
vegetables on the barbecue grill. You'll love the al
dente texture as well.
Our first exposure to
this way of cooking resulted from following the
South Beach Diet. Yes we have lost a lot of weight
in short order and are still losing. This diet is high
on vegetables. Many vegetables can be cooked on your
barbeque is you have the proper
grill accessories
- a grill pan and tongs are the most important.
Just cut your vegetables
up into large, bite sized pieces and drizzle with olive
oil and sprinkle with some cracked salt. Sometimes I add
some other spices or marinade
sauces sparingly. Try using mushrooms, onions,
asparagus chunks, red and green peppers, zuccini,
carrots, snow peas, leek chunks, broccoli or cauliflour.
The smoky, bbq flavor is fabulous. Sometimes when I'm
feeling particularly lazy, I add chunks of uncooked
chicken, pork, salmon or beef and cook everything at
once.
This method of cooking
vegetables is fast, easy and very tasty. You'll want to
purchase your grilling accessories today so you can try
this our for dinner.
Gee I love my
gas grill. Don't you love
yours?!
