A New Take on Broccoli Salad

Forget the heavy, creamy broccoli salads—this version brings the flavor with a serious upgrade. Grilled on the Barrel Pro Charcoal Barrel Grill, the broccoli gets perfectly charred for a smoky, caramelized bite. Tossed in a tangy-sweet marinade, it’s bold, fresh, and far from ordinary. This is the side dish that’ll have everyone asking for seconds.

Why Veggies Deserve the Spotlight

At cookouts, side dishes often play second fiddle, but grilled veggies, especially broccoli, deserve a moment to shine. The smoky, charred flavor from the grill takes them to the next level, turning them into a bold, flavorful side that can stand up to any main dish. Plus, with the right toppings and protein pairings, they can easily become the star of the plate. Here are a few ideas to elevate your grilled broccoli:

• Toppings: Slivered almonds, mandarin oranges, balsamic glaze, or crumbled feta
• Protein Pairings: Grilled chicken, steak, pulled pork, or even smoky grilled salmon

Grilled veggies aren’t just a side—they’re a key player in any meal!

A Flavor Powerhouse

The right seasoning can take grilled veggies from good to great, and when it comes to broccoli, a blend of umami, sweetness, and a touch of heat makes all the difference. A smoky, savory seasoning pairs perfectly with the charred edges of the broccoli, while a dash of sweetness from mandarin oranges and crunch from slivered almonds help balance the dish. It’s a simple combination that creates a flavorful harmony, and while there are plenty of seasoning options out there, this mix really brings out the best in the veggies.
