Equipment
- Grill mat/topper
Ingredients
- 2-3 heads cauliflower
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- fresh cilantro for garnish
Spice Rub
- 2 tsp kosher salt
- ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
- ½ tsp ground cumin
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper
- ½ tsp ginger powder
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
Instructions
- Prepare the cauliflower by removing all leaves and trim off any brown spots. Cut off the lower ⅛ inch of the stem and then with the stem facing upwards, cut down through the stem to make four steaks, each about half an inch thick.
- Combine spice rub ingredients in a small bowl. Use a fork to crush any lumps. Drizzle olive oil and sprinkle spice rub over the cauliflower. Apply to both sides.
- Fire up grill to 300-350°F, and set up for 2-zone cooking. Place grill mat on indirect size.
- Place cauliflower steaks on grill mat. Close lid and cook until tender, usually 20 minutes. You should be able to glide a fork into them with little resistence.
- Optional: Move cauliflower steaks to the direct side to create a seared finish. Flip regularly until done.
- Remove from grill and serve immediately.
