Anyone done them before? I was gunna season and roast at about 400 indirect. Maybe a little longer for the cauliflower.


Be careful, man! I've got a beverage here.

    I can only be of minimum help because I don't eat rabbit food.

    I can only offer this help.  It's Bok Choi, not Bak Choi.

    You're welcome.

    Never grilled it and don't really think it would be great. Steamed with a bit of butter. The Bok Choy I mean. Get me on that one Gary

    Cauliflower is delicious roasted, but takes 45 - 60 mins at 350 in n oven. Never tried on BGE

    tried califlower on the egg the other night - wasn't happy with the taste.   I poured way too much hickory smoke on it - cooked very nicely, very tender, just had a really bitter over smoked taste.

    We love cauliflower roasted in the oven, so i will definately be taking another run at this.  

    I trimmed the lower leaves off, squared up the bottom and just set the whole head on the grill, indirect.   350-400 dome - will take about 25-35 minutes.

    EEVO, Salt, Pepper - next time will not add any smoking chips/chunks - then ease the smoke up after I get one that is edible.   Based on how it cooked - this is definately going to be good side dish.

    One other thing - after roasting - you can either splash some basalmic vinegar on it - or - mix mayo and mustard together, then paint the head.

    I'm sorry, Travis.  I'll give you an extra gyoza in Salado to make amends.

    Sounds like a deal. I'm not sure what a gyoza is but as long as you cook it on an egg I'm sure it will be decent :)

    It turned out ok. The cauliflower was not so hot but, the bok choy was yum yum yum.

    cauliflower: 425 dome. plate setter legs up w/ grid on top. Round about 35 min (that was not enough) Salt, pepper, EVOO, Melted butter, papprika.

    bok choy: 5 min. 425 dome direct. salt, pepper, EVOO, drawn butter. (about as good as it gets)
