Never owned a grill before, until now. Gas, 4 main burners plus a side burner.

Would love some recommendations for what you guys love grilling

For things like squash, zucchini, and especially eggplant, I like to cut them, salt both sides, and put them in the fridge for like an hour. Then come back to them, pat them dry, THEN add your oil/fat before grilling them. On eggplant in particular, it seems to cut the bitterness. On all of them. It makes them brown faster without getting soggy.

    I have done that with Eggplant the one time made it. I know that's almost required with eggplants.

    I usually salt my veggies a few minutes before I grill. But I should try the hour beforehand. I do it with meat (I sometimes do days with meat) so it should be easy to do with squash, zucchini, etc.
