Grilling VegetableTips
Most vegetables are suitable for the grill and turn out great when done right. Vegetables with a high water content are not suitable for grilling. Vegetables like cucumber, lettuce and most leafy greens will not work on the grill.
Rather go with asparagus, potatoes, onions and peppers. These vegetables work well with the high heat of the grill. Follow these techniques and tips to get perfectly grilled vegetables.
Preparing - Vegetables
Wash all vegetables under a cold running tap and pat dry them with a paper towel.
Some vegetables can be grilled whole or sliced up into smaller pieces. Potatoes for instance can be peeled to make it more tasteful to eat.
Season the vegetables some of your favourite spices to add flavour. Use simple ingredients like salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder. To add a layer of protection you coat the vegetables with olive oil.
Barbecue Vegetables
Make sure your grill grid is well greased to prevent any sticking. Pre-heat the grill to a medium to high heat.
Most vegetables can be grilled without any aluminum foil like potatoes and eggplant. Vegetables like potatoes and peppers can stand up to the high heat.
Sometimes use aluminum foil when preparing your vegetables to keep them moist and prevent them from burning.
Unfortunately using foil prevents the veggies from getting that great smoky taste. A small amount of smoke is great for vegetables.
Vegetables can burn pretty quickly, so keep a close eye on them when you grilling, no one likes burnt vegetables. Any black colouring will is not the best thing for your vegetables.
