If you haven’t tried grilled asparagus, you really should do yourself a favor and just try it. It’s AMAZING! It’s true that I like asparagus any ole way, but grilled is the bomb.com.
I am happy to eat asparagus anytime: breakfast, snack, lunch, dinner, or anytime in between.
This recipe is super quick and easy and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
HELPFUL HINTS FOR GRILLED ASPARAGUS
Typically, the more slender asparagus is the best.
Once the asparagus is placed on the grill, DO NOT WALK AWAY! It will, literally, cook in 2 to 4 minutes.
When I cook asparagus other ways, I often add more seasonings, but when it is grilled keeping it simple is best.

I use this Weber charcoal grill for all my grilling needs.
I haven’t really researched yet how these grill mats work without burning up, but they are AMAZING!!!
These long tongs help keep your skin away from the heat.
I use this Cavender’s so often that I buy it in a 5 pound tub.
