Outdoor Grilled Vegetables

Once the vegetables you select are cleaned and prepped, it is helpful to pre-cook slightly, either by steaming, lightly boiling or preferably baking in the oven or microwaving. Cook just enough to soften. Then select your favorite barbeque sauce or salad dressing (Italian, Russian, Catalina or French are excellent for basting), dip the vegetable pieces in the dressing and place on the grill and cook till done (2-3 minutes a side). Dont be concerned if vegetables blacken somewhat, only the skin is charring. Baste as needed. Exceptionally delicious! For corn, simply dip whole ears with husks in water and wrap in foil, or place as is in the coals or on the grill. Cook depending on heat till done. Cook to handle. Husks come off cleanly and corn is fantastic! Enjoy!
