Corn is one of those vegetables that just begs to be put on the grill. There are many techniques but I prefer to remove the husks and silks, and grill my corn on the cob
with wood chunks on the grill’s heat shields. In answer to the question about soaking the wood in water first – no, I do not do this step as I want my corn kernels to really crackle on the grill. Just see our posting on how to add wood chunks to the LP grill.
Avocado chocolate pudding kissed by “fire” and “smoke” for an extra boost of flavor!
Avocado has been known for its health benefits for some time and has gone beyond the simple slice or dice and add to your favorite salad. It has become the new replacement for butter in many recipes.

You can see our previous article on the technique we used on the gas grill.
