I LOVE grilled vegetables. I love doing slabs of zucchini and eggplant and big fat rings of onion and then eating them on a sandwich the next day. I tend to do a lot of kebabs and like to put all kinds of vegetables on them. Zucchini, mushrooms, onions, bell peppers are classic, but I actually really like cauliflower on skewers. I might try that parboiling trick – I’m always so worried about grilling chicken but it always tastes so good!

Zoe, grilling really concentrates the sugars, making this dessert

Paula, lol, yes, I know this is heretical to many grill lovers. You are right about sugar (or other sweetener) causing the most burning. Frankly, I used to think burned food was part of the grilling experience. Hope you like the veggies.

Beverly, the pineapple is really awesome.

Thanks for commenting!

My husband would declare you a heretic that must be burned at the stake for saying you only grill the meat the last 5 minutes of cooking LOL.

The reason chicken burns on the outside and is raw on the inside is because of the sauce. You don’t put the sauce until the last 5 minutes of cooking. There’s too much sugar in the sauce for it to hold up to that sort of heat.

I do the ribs in the oven over night at 200 or so, then put them on the pit for a while to get the smoky flavor.

The veggie recipe sounds great. I’m going to try it next time we grill.
