What Are Unique Grill Ideas Beyond Pizza and Fajitas for a Large Party?

[chefsteph07]

I just booked a grill show for June and there is the potential for alot of guests there...this is a past host of mine who last did a 1k show back in Jan 2011- all teachers, she wants to celebrate end of the year w/ her friends!
My question is...I am not wanting to a pizza on the grill (did that for a booking my past host had) and I don't want to do fajitas (did that for current host in the DCB) so what other ideas are there? I did ask her if she had anything in mind, she wants to use the grill basket (so thinking veggies of some sort, or fruit) and what to do for a main dish? Chicken breast and rubs w/ sauces is kind of what I'm thinking....any other ideas?

How about a grilled salsa? You could do a grilled peach salsa which is so tasty and different! Also, could do grilled zucchini boats.

Recipes please!
I do not grill,(we don't have one) so I need some instruction and will have to experiment before the party on my mom's grill! LOL

Last summer I did grilled fajitas. Do them just like you would in the DCB, only toss with a bit of olive oil, and throw them in a grillling tray. I actually did the chicken in the grill tray, and the veggies in the grill basket. This year, I think I'd use the flexible grill basket for the chicken.

I'm doing a grilling show at the end of the month and will be using BBQ Vegetable Rack to make baked potatoes and do a potato bar. I'm hoping it goes well!

Why don't you do grilled pita pockets. You can grill the chicken and veggies and serve them in warm pitas from the grill. You can even make a yogurt sauce for them and add fresh pressed garlic to it. It'll have a little Middle Eastern flair to it.

I love this idea! Ok, how do you grill the pockets, in a tray or on the grates? And for how long do you think? And do you have a recipe for yogurt sauce? Love love love...sorry for all the questions, I am NOT a grill master and need guidance! LOL

Let's keep these ideas coming. I am doing a Grilling Class and I want to give out Grilling recipes.

Grilled chicken skewers (chicken, bell peppers, onions, fresh pineapple) and then brushed with the Spicy Pineapple Rum Sauce.

Grilled Veggies in the BBQ grill basket - Red, yellow and orange bell peppers, red onions, zucchinis, asparagus, yellow squash, cut in small/med pieces toss in the ss bowl with EVOO, garlic (use garlic press), salt and pepper then transfer to grill basket. Yum!!!

Has anyone tried grilled stuffed peppers on the vegetable rack? I want to do it for a party next week, but haven't experimented yet!
