These grilled green beans are the easiest side to make on the grill. I try to make everything I can outside on the grill, specially when it is hot out.
Add some diced white onion for extra flavor. I like to serve beans in a small glass jar. It just looks a little spiffier. I got the idea when we stopped by Firehouse BBQ and Blues, a great BBQ joint in downtown Richmond, Indiana. Why is it that things taste better out of jars? Iced tea is that way. I swear it just tastes better out of a big ole mason jar.
