Grilled Portobello Mushrooms

I love mushrooms, especially the big, meaty portobello. These beautiful fungi can be served as a side dish or as the main dish. This recipe can be sliced on the side (like I did with some grilled chicken) or left whole and put between a kaiser roll with tomatoes and lettuce. It’s simply delicious and incredibly easy to make!

Here’s How to Grill some Mushrooms:

Start with some simple ingredients. Place your favorite rub, some used finely ground coffee grounds, 2 Tablespoons of olive oil.

Mix it all together well.

Cut the stem off of the portobello as close as possible. Drizzle the remaining olive oil over the top and gills of the mushrooms.

Add a few twists of some fresh ground pepper and a couple pinches of salt to the top and bottom. You choose how much you want.

Rub the tops and very gently rub the gills

with the rub mixture.

Let it sit for about 20 minutes – while the grill heats up.

Place them on the grill over indirect heat, gill side down. I turned on all three burners to heat the grill, then turned off the middle burner and put the two end ones on low. This creates and area in the center of the grill for indirect heat.

Cook for about 10 minutes, then carefully turn. Cook for about 10 more minutes, then remove to a plate.

Let it rest for about five minutes. You can slice it, or build your sandwich now. The mushrooms will be soft, but still slightly firm and moist all the way through.

Delicious!
