Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Cauliflower

    Remove the leaves from the cauliflower and trim the stem. Cut the cauliflower into thick slices or 'steaks', about 1 inch thick.

  2. 2

    Make the Marinade

    In a large bowl, combine the olive oil, smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the spices are evenly incorporated.

  3. 3

    Marinate the Cauliflower

    Add the cauliflower slices to the bowl with the marinade. Toss gently to coat each slice evenly. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Grilling

  1. 4

    Preheat the Grill

    While the cauliflower is marinating, preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

  2. 5

    Grill the Cauliflower

    Once the grill is hot, place the marinated cauliflower slices directly on the grill grates. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have nice grill marks.

  3. 6

    Add Barbecue Sauce

    During the last few minutes of grilling, brush the barbecue sauce generously over each cauliflower steak. Allow it to caramelize slightly on the grill.

Serving

  1. 7

    Plate and Garnish

    Remove the grilled cauliflower from the grill and place it on a serving platter. Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve with lemon wedges on the side.

  2. 8

    Serve

    Enjoy your barbecued cauliflower chops warm, either as a main dish or a side.
