Marinate in 50/50 soy sauce and water for a couple hours. Can do direct or indirect, just need to pay more attention when direct.
Do at 350-400 for 5 to 10 minutes.

To me simple is better with asparagus.
I like just the heads with only a little bit of the stalk. I wash it and put it in a baggie. To the baggie I add olive all, kosher salt, coarse ground pepper and sesame seeds. Toss until well coated. Cook over direct heat, in a grill wok, until done.

Try 50/50 lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce, a little sugar and a dash of olive oil roast at medium heat. Pierce the shaft (!) with a pairing knife. They're done when there's no resistance.

This recipe is pre-BGE for me and I have not adapted it yet to the egg but it's a great recipe and simple. Please excuse my standard oven method. Turn broiler on. Spray baking sheet with canola oil spray. Lay asparagus out in a single layer on the sheet. Spray the asparagus lightly with the canola oil spray. Sprinkle finely grated Parmesan cheese over the asparagus. Broil 4 inches from the burner for 8-10 minutes.I cook. I eat. I repeat. Thornville, Ohio

You can get the same flavor without discoloration if you use the zest of the lemon. I also prefer using an infused oil, such as orange.Marietta, East Cobb, GA -

Use the biggest you can find. Peel the stalk like a carrot or cucumber--make some stripes in other words. Marinate in oil, lemon, fresh garlic, kosher salt and cracked pepper. Grill direct and get some char. Marinade makes a good dressing as well. Really helps the sugars come out when you score the stalk!

I hit with a little EVOO, some garlic salt and pepper, then put it direct on the BGE for a few minutes - No need for a pan. Quick, easy, and good.

I marinade mine in soy, siracha, and sesame oil for a few hours in a ziplock. Grill until tender and then roll in some toasted sesame seeds.

EVOO and swamp venom, then grill, serve with side of melted butter to pour on when plated

EVOO and a little salt. Direct at about 450, flip once. Let it get a little brown and eat about 7 lbs of it. Then for the next day you will remember you ate asparagus every time you go to the bathroom )

will you be cooking asparagus at the owosso fest on saturday??
-
Wow. I never knew there were so many ways. Awesome. Thanks for all the ideas. @rickg, yes I will be.
-
I put mine on a plate and put a couple pads of butter on top and then into the microwave for a minute just long enough to melt the butter. Toss them all around to coat with butter then hit it with Susie q's and pepper. Then grill direct to how you like it. We like them pretty charred so I do them at high heat so they aren't on long enough to get soggy.
-
cool!! I will have to try some.

I like to blanch the asparagus, then toss it in ice water.When dinner is ready, I will heat a pan with butter, salt and pepper.Toss the asparagus in that butter for a minute.Wonderful, tasty, and tender crisp.Many times, I will add julienned carrots and leek shreds to the mix.Absolutely delicious...

We are simply over run with asparagus this year. Our bed is about 8 years old and is really starting to produce. All of the above recipes are winners and I don't see how you could go wrong with any of them. I made this dish at my brothers last weekend. It was pouring rain and I must admit I used the side burner of his Weber under the covered deck.
I lightly steamed the asparagus about seven minutes and then tossed it in an ice bath. I then sauteed some garlic in olive oil and added the asparagus for a couple of minutes. Next I added three eggs, sea salt and fresh ground pepper. Browned on the first side and then flipped until done. Served with some toasted baguette. It's not real pretty, but it sure tasted good!
