Grilling vegetables

Yes, our Home Depot has the same thing. It's amazing how good it smells when you're all hungry from doing work on your house or whatever.

I love to cook corn on the cob on the grill. I find that cooking the corn in the husks makes it harder to eat when it is done because you burn your fingers trying to get the husks off. So now I remove the husks first and then wrap the corn in a piece of aluminum foil and place them over the coals. Make sure to periodically turn the corn so that all sides are evenly done. The foil provides the same protection and moisture retention as does the husks. It also allows those of you that like to season your corn on the cob before you cook it. When the corn in good and fresh I find that a little bit of butter and a dash of salt after it is cooked is all it needs.

There are some vegetables that I really don't like, but when they're grilled, I can actually tolerate them. I don't prefer them, though...

I grill corn on the cob all the time. I always remove the husk, add butter, salt & pepper. This makes the best corn on the cob, in my opinion.

Grilled onions are the best!!!
The Lowe's near my house has a food vendor right outside the exit. They are always grilling onions and when you come out, that is all you smell. Of course, they probably do more sales just because the smell of grilling onions than if they didnt grill them. It if was just hotdogs with chopped onions, they probably wouldnt sell as much.

you can never go without grilled onions

Here's a couple things you might want to try.

1 - Put Onions and Bell Peppers and Jalepenos in one of those baskets used for grilling fish... there's usually a slide on the handle end that will give your veggies a nice tight fit. It's not going to fit very well in most standard charcoal or gas grills so just keep turning it and moving it around for a few minutes... perfect for fajitas. Oh don't forget to drizzle olive oil on everything.

2 - Portabella mushroom caps brushed with olive oil and grilled make an amazing topping for your burgers. The mushroom caps will lose a bit of moisture during the cooking process and flatten out a bit, so don't be intimedated by there size.

3 - add margarine, salt and pepper and Feta cheese to corn on the cob and roll in foil. Big time flavor on this one.

I could be here all day but I need to save something for future posts

Asparagus, mushrooms, green beans, Onions, tomatoes, Vidallias (to make a French onion soup), and potatoes.

I too love the grilled onions. I also use a cast iron skillet to sort of bake all kinds of veggies. Usually a mixture of squash, onions, tomatoes, bell peppers etc. With the lid closed I find a 10 - 15 minute head start on whatever meat you're grilling is about right. Drizzle some olive oil on it and add some Mrs. Dash extra spicy or whatever. Just give it a stir whenever you check or turn the meat. BTW I put the skillet on the upper "warming" rack, not on the grill.

I love grilled vegetables. One of my favorites is zucchini sliced and drizzled with olive oil before adding garlic, salt, pepper, and marjoram.
