After preparing mushrooms, place in the foil and wrap up. Place on a preheated grill and cook for about 20 minutes. I like to place the foil pack mushrooms when I place our meats on the grill.
This way that everything is about the same time.

After about 20 minutes, we remove the foil packet from the grill. Carefully open the packet and if the mushrooms are tender and juicy they are done. You can also tell they are done when they turn a darker color.
Recipe Tips:

- Clean Mushrooms – We recommend cleaning the mushrooms before grilling them. I like to place them in a colander and run water over them.

- Add Flavor – Feel free to add soy sauce or other types of sauce and seasoning to add flavor to this foil pack vegetables.

- Olive Oil – We like to spray each piece of heavy duty foil with olive oil to prevent the mushrooms from sticking.
- Vegetables – Feel free to add in other vegetables when grilling mushrooms. Our favorite is adding in asparagus with the mushrooms.
Do you Salt Mushrooms before Grilling?
We usually season the mushrooms with salt prior to grilling. Some recipes indicate that it could cause the mushrooms to be rubbery. We have not had that problem, so you can easily do what you prefer.
