Pro Tips
- Cut lengthwise for planks — they're easier to flip and won't fall through grates.
- Don't cut too thin or they'll go mushy.
- Zucchini releases water — pat dry before oiling for better char.
Resting Time
Rest for 1–2 minutes after removing from the BBQ. This allows juices to redistribute for a juicier result.
