Seafood
Shellfish and crustaceans actually cook up really well on the grill. You just need to put them in a BBQ-safe dish. Try grilled mussels for a super easy yet fancy addition to your barbecue spread. Simply wash the mussels and remove the "beards". Place in your dish and let cook on the grill. As soon as the mussels open, they're ready to serve.
Also, don't forget to try marinated shrimp skewers. To flip them easily, use wooden skewers so you don't burn your fingers.
