BBQ Style Grilled Veggies

BBQ Style Grilled Veggies

I just love having barbecues and sometimes I get tired of just having hamburgers and hotdogs. I want a steak or chicken with vegetables. Not plain, boring corn on the cob or something out of a can! I want something fresh and new! I decided to create a 3 vegetable mixture combination and cook it over the grill in aluminum foil. I had my friends over to be the taste testers to try out my vegetable recipe. I cooked up this side dish along with the steak and it was a successful hit. It was so easy you should try it.

Ingredients: 

You will want three different types of fresh vegetables. I chose carrots, potatoes and onions

8 red onions
1 small bag of carrots
8 small red russet potatoes
2 cups of butter
Pepper
Garlic powder
Aluminum foil
Large mixing bowl

 

Let's get grilling!

1. Heat the grill to about 400 degrees, close the lid to ensure proper heat.

2. Thoroughly wash your potatoes. Scrub them with a vegetable brush. If you don't have a vegetable brush, you can use a wet wash rag or brand new sponge. Leave the skins on the potatoes, and cut into small cubes. Place into your large mixing bowl.

3. Peel all onions. Wash the onions and dice. Place into large mixing bowl.

4. Scrub the carrots with the vegetable brush or sponge. Cut into cubes and place into large mixing bowl.

5. Mix all vegetables together, add in pepper (about 1 tablespoons) and in the butter and mix until the vegetables are coated in the butter.

6. Add in the garlic powder (about 1 tablespoons). Mix together all ingredients in the bowl until fully mixed.

7. Cut square shaped sheets of the aluminum foil. You will need a total of 12 sheets as I double wrap the vegetable mixture so that the butter doesn't leak out and it holds in the heat. Place into a pile. Spoon vegetable mixture onto the first sheet of aluminum foil. Fold the length of the foil together and then fold the width (like an envelope shape). Repeat folding process with the second sheet of aluminum foil so that the vegetable mixture has been double wrapped. Continue this process until vegetable mixture is gone.

8. Place the vegetable mixture onto the grill seam down. Cook for about 10 minutes and flip. Cook for another 10 minutes. Remove from the grill.

9. Let stand and cool off for about five minutes then unwrap and serve on your plate. There you have it grilled vegetables!
