Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.
The cooking rack for the Char-Broil Big Easy (sadly, no longer available!) is a definite must-have accessory for the cooker. I use it to cook everything from French fries to nachos. And yep, even herb roasted mushrooms on the Char-Broil Big Easy. I often remove the racks themselves and add 9″ pie pans (you can leave in the racks and use 8″ or smaller pie pans). Then I’m off and running.
The Perfect Side Dish
Everything comes out great. And since I have more than one Big Easy I can cook a main dish in one (like fantastic roasted chicken) and a side or two in the other! Score!
I used smaller baby portabella mushrooms but you can use any mushrooms you wish, even mixing up types when you make herb roasted mushrooms on the Char-Broil Big Easy. Just keep in mind that larger mushrooms or mushrooms with thicker caps might take a bit longer to cook. I like to cook my mushrooms cap-side down. The juices stay inside the cap, keeping the mushrooms nice and moist.
Also try my pesto stuffed mushrooms, made on the Big Easy!
It’s always a good idea to keep a few spare grease trays on hand for your Char-Broil Big Easy.
