screen on the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thekitchn.com\/grilling-outdoors-use-a-charco-86888\">charcoal grill<\/a> grate to help retain the small, hot coals for cooking.\u00a0 I have a collection of

high heat tolerant oil over the cauliflower (I\u2019m using avocado oil).\u00a0 Allow that to cook while you melt butter which will be poured over the cauliflower.\u00a0\u00a0 I melt the butter directly on the grill while the cauliflower is cooking.\u00a0 Allow this to char the cauliflower on the griddle for about 12 minutes.\u00a0 We just want enough tenderness to allow the direct coal

the mesh.\u00a0 You\u2019ll see I\u2019ve placed a large wood chunk just off the hot coals to produce some additional wood-fired flavor.\u00a0 Now in goes the cauliflower steaks.\u00a0 I position them right on the hot coals.\u00a0 Don\u2019t turn or disturb these pieces for a least 8 minutes at which time, flip the cauliflower to char the other side.\u00a0 This is what produces the fabulous \u201cmeaty\u201d char taste and why cauliflower is done on the grill is often referred to as a cauliflower steak.<\/p>\n<p>If you will use the cauliflower in a recipe, then cooking about 12 minutes on the coals will be enough.\u00a0 If enjoying as is, then cook slightly longer and enjoy.\u00a0 This truly is the easiest method of cooking a single head of cauliflower for a true char flavor.\u00a0
