BBQ advice

Yes. If you are using the commercially prepared VeggieBurgers, just throw them

on the barby and cook that way. Keep track of where your burger is on the grill,

unless you want to loose it!  If using home made, yes, do in the foil because

sometimes they want to come apart.Also, TAKE EXTRAS! Every time we go to a

neighborhood bbq inevitably someone wants to try one. Several have turned to the

green side of foodness, at least for several meals a week, just because of

trying one vegetarian burgerless burger. Also take some yellow squash, cut long

ways and basted with a little olive oil and sea salt, long Japanese eggplants,

done the same way, thick slices of tomato, thick slices of sweet onions which

are great brushed with teriyaki sauce half way through cooking, and marinated

white mushrooms on skewers and slices of fresh pineapple brushed with a little

corn oil and lightly sprinkled with sea salt or teriyaki sauce.  If you don't

have a narrow grate, soak

2 skinny bamboo skewers in water and put them into the pineappleto hold it

together. Drool.

 

Back off to bed. Hugs to all, Jeanne in GA

I'm going to a BBQ tomorrow, weather permitting ;-) I may well be the only

non-meat eater and will certainly be the only vegan, so I will be taking my own

food but I do want to be able to join in the fun. I thought I would cook a

vegeburger to take with me. Will I be able to heat it up in a foil dish on the

barby? (Can you tell this is my first BBQ, LOL?)

 

TIA

Thanks you so much to everyone who replied on this query. I have saved all of

your responses for next time. In the end I made mushroom/pecan burgers and

vegetable kebabs to share. Unfortunately I arrived a bit later and found the

allotment gates locked and no way of attracting anyone's attention :-( So I

just had to turn around and walk home again. Never mind. It was a shame that I

never got to share my food but the bonus is that I ended up with enough kebabs

to last me the weekend and I froze the rest of the burgers :-)

It was a shame that you didn't get to attend the BBQ and share your delicious

prepared food with everyone. Why would they lock the gates?

 

Have you shared your mushroom pecan burger recipe with us? It sounds delicious.

Also were your vegetable kabobs grilled or raw? I know you sure enjoyed them.

That is what I do for potlucks at our vegetarian potlucks. I make things I

know we love, so if there are leftovers, we will enjoy them for another meal.

I usually take about 6 dishes, so there is lots of variety at our meals.

 

Have a wonderful day Christie!

Thanks Judy - it was my own fault for arriving late. I didn't realise that

the gate would be locked. The BBQ was being held at an allotment and I guess

that they need to keep the gate locked so that the plots don't get

vandalised. Allotments are small plots of land that can be rented from the

city council specifically for the growing of fruit and veg - great for

people living in apartments with no garden of their own. They are so popular

there is a 5-10 year waiting list here in Edinburgh.

 

The mushroom pecan burger was a recipe that I found online somewhere. I'll

post the recipe separately. The vegetable kebabs were raw and I stuck them

under the grill when I got home. I drizzled them with basil olive oil which

was not such a good choice as the flavour was all wrong.
