It's Zucchini Season!

[bep35]

It's that time of year when everyone has Zucchini they want to give away. I am looking for different ways to cook it on the grill including seasonings folks use and how they grill it. Any hints would be appreciated. Thanks!

Spiralize and toss with olive oil or sauce. Season with S&P and add shrimp or...

+1 on this
a staple when we BBQ the usual greenies and finding I prefer the yellow variety now

I love to do them the easy way.
3 zooks sliced 1/4 inch thick
1 Vidalia onion sliced 1/4 inch thick.
1 packet ranch dressing mix.
1.5 tablespoons olive oil.
Mix it up and let it set on the counter for a few hours.
Into the oven or smoker for an hour or 2 and excellent side dish.
I will stick them in the smoker for the last 2 hours or so when I'm doing ribs.

Love grilled zucchini/squash. Look up Adam Perry Lang's recipe. If i can remember correctly....

Cut Zucchini into spears, marinate in chopped garlic, ginger, orange juice & soy sauce for 1-2 hours. Grill till done then drizzle with honey and grated pecorino

Another dish I actually made earlier in the week is a Provencal Tian, which is like a composed ratatouille. Its actually the dish that Lil Chef cooked in the movie. Below is a recipe I riffed off to make it

Sliced longway, seasoned with AP Rub, then drizzled with EVOO and grilled.

It up onion, bell pepper, zucchini, squash and mushrooms. Put in a zip lock bag with olive oil, salt, pepper and balsamic vinegar. Let marinate for a minimum of 4 hours.
Cook on a flat top or on frog mats on a grill. Even just frying in a skillet with some Cajun seasoning and butter works. We eat this style of veggies 2-3 times a week.

We love grilled zucchini in slices with a nice char, but not burnt or mushy inside.

Anyone have any tips for getting a nice char w/o overcooking? I can't seem to consistently nail it.
Salt before hand and try to blot off some water with paper towels? Or salt immediately before grilling?
I usually grill veggies on my gas w/ GrillGrates

I don’t have a method that produces consistent results. Just that I prefer the taste of grilled zucchini over other methods, regardless of how over or under cooked it comes off the grill.

Zucchini bread is the only eatable form.
I know everyone has a recipe I will like..................not. Not a fan, no way, always ends up in a pile on the side of my plate. JMHO

I love grilled zucchini. This is the season where I use it in almost every meal. Little bit of olive oil, salt, pepper and some garlic powder.

I love zucchini stew with pork sausage......Mouth is watering thinking about it!!

[bep35]

Do you have a recipe for your zucchini stew?

[pjlstrat]

bep35 I am not really a recipe guy. More like wing it. That said.....brown the sausage and drain off the fat. Use some of the fat to saute carrot, celery onion and garlic. once softened and fragrant add crushed tomatoes and chicken stock. S&P to taste and a couple of bay leaves. add in the zucchini (chunked) and the sausage. Cook until the Zhuch is softened. Serve with a little hot sauce and enjoy. You can use any sausage u like but I use a nice fennel based italian.
