Guide to Grilling Vegetables and Fruit

Prepare your fruit or vegetables and brush with butter
or basting sauce if desired. To cook indirectly, the
food should be placed on the left or right side of your
grill with the burner lit on the opposite side and the

grill lid down. Or center your food on the secondary
cooking rack and light the outer grill burners. Either
way, indirect cooking must be done with the lid
down.

In some instances, you may want to grill vegetables
and fruit directly over the heat, using the supplied
cooking grids or an optional griddle. Foods that work
best with direct heat are relatively soft and require a
short cooking time; mushrooms, zucchini, tomatoes
and skewered fruit such as apricots, peaches,

pineapple, strawberries and kiwis. Remember the

grill lid must remain up when cooking directly.

For very firm vegetables articularly potatoes and

yams, we recommend that you partially boil until

almost cooked, before placing them on the grill.

Cooking times using the indirect method with the
hood down will be similar to those for your kitchen
oven. However, there are many factors such as
outside temperature, wind conditions and location of
grill that affect your grill performance so we suggest
you watch the grill thermometer and adjust the heat

accordingly.

Cooking times for foods prepared with the direct
method will be much shorter mainly because of the
direct heat sourse and softness of the food. Timing

will be comparable to normal pan frying or grilling.
