Grilled Okra

This recipe is provided by Travis Hall from Belton, Texas.

  • 15 to 20 tender okra pods, 3 inches long
  • Olive Oil
  • Cajun Seasoning
Place okra on a metal or wooden skewer through the side at the center of the pod. Brush with Olive Oil. Sprinkle on Cajun Seasoning.

Grill on charcoal or gas grill for 2 to 3 minutes then turn over and grill until turning brown.

Serve and eat while still warm.

Note added by Travis: I tried a little bit of a change in grilling my okra today. Using 2 skewers and building like a ladder works a lot better than trying to turn the okra on just 1 skewer. Make an individual ladder for each guest. (see picture below)
