Looking for a little variety
As the title says, I have about 13# of fresh picked asparagus from the weekend and I'm looking to see what everyone does with it or how they prepare it.
9# have been vacuum packed. Making bacon wrapped asparagus tonight!

I like to toss asparagus with a little olive oil and garlic. Then grill it with a little smoke. Don't over do it, I like them "tender crisp". I always make extra and toss it in the freezer to make a quick smoky cream of asparagus soup.

I tend to put it in a tin foil pouch with garlic infused evoo and sprinkle in some celery salt. Then slap it on the grill for a few minutes then flip and go a few more minutes.

Redneck Escargot:
Stuff baby Portobello mushrooms with chopped asparagus. Cover with fresh parmesan reggiano. Grill till bubbly. Wrap stuffed shrooms in sourdough bread (think French dip) and dip in garlic butter. Damn. I now know what's for supper.
