Easy Grilled Mushrooms

Grilled mushrooms can be a perfect topping for burgers, steaks, chicken, or an ingredient on a kabob! Or, serve up a batch as the perfect tasty side dish. Either way, push aside any worries and follow the Easy Grilled Mushroom recipe below for a mouth-watering batch.

Which Mushrooms?

Button style mushrooms are perfect for this recipe and for kabobs etc. The trick is to make sure that the mushrooms are all about the same size. This allows for even cooking. That being said, find the type you enjoy, buy them, rinse, remove any dirt particles, and pat dry with a paper towel. For me, portobello mushrooms, are best suited for grilling as a main dish such as a portabella burger or stuffed portabella.

You can grill directly on grill grates but I prefer using a grilling basket such as the BBQ Dragon Rolling Grill Basket! Of course, you can also grill using wooden or metal skewers. And, you can halve the mushrooms if they are big… or if you just feel like it.
