Roasted Green Beans (Charcoal Grill)
Green beans roasted over charcoal for a smoky, charred bite. Ready in just 18 minutes with only salt, pepper, and a light spray of oil.
Ingredients
- 100 gm green beans
- Oil for spray
- Black pepper (for sprinkling)
- Salt (to taste)
Instructions
- Trim both ends off the beans, wash them well, and pat them fully dry with a kitchen towel.
- Add the beans to a mixing bowl with salt and black pepper, spray with oil, and toss or mix by hand until every bean is coated.
- Light your charcoal and let it heat up to medium high before you start grilling.
- Arrange the beans on the grill grate in a single layer, leaving a little space between each one so the heat reaches all sides. I use the BBQ net grill basket. It holds better and is easy to flip.
- Set the grate over the charcoal and let the beans roast for about 3 minutes, until you see a light char forming on the bottom side, then flip. Keep flipping the beans every 3 minutes, repeatedly.
- Once the beans have an even char on all sides, pull them off the grate and serve while hot.
Notes
- Spread your charcoal evenly so every bean gets the same heat.
- Pull the beans off as soon as they're lightly charred to avoid burning them.
- Dry the beans completely before oiling them for a better char.
- Leave space between beans on the grate so they don't steam instead of char.
