Grilled Vegetables
Great side dish to go with any dinner grilled outside. This one has it all, corn, potatoes, zucchini, onions and carrots. I made some simple grilled vegetables to go with the standing rib roast I grilled today. I am not having a fun grilling weekend here. I was sitting at my computer last night while I was cooking a steak I had cut off of the standing rib roast I had bought when I heard a large pop outside. Imagine my surprise when I saw all 3 controls to the grill on ground and the bbq on fire. Well the fire only had seconds left so it went out on its own but I sure never had this happen before. So today I go out and put my trusty digital thermometer into the roast and come back 5 minutes later and it had blown up. I’m not sure if it was old age or the Alabama sun but it is no longer with us. I really was beginning to wonder if I should be bbq’ing at all this weekend. I am glad I carried on as the dinner came out fabulous. I decided to have grilled vegetables as I wanted easy today. I par-boiled the corn, carrots and potatoes. I cooked them in the foil with roasted garlic olive oil and did zucchini slices on the grill with the corn. Season the vegetables with your favorite salt free seasoning and then add a little salt. I find when I do it this way I can cut back on salt and don’t miss it either. The great thing about these vegetables as a side was, I didn’t put it on the grill until I was ready to take the rib roast off so the roast got its 20 minutes of resting time it needed before serving.
