Grilled Collard Greens

1. 1

   Prepare a large bowl of ice water; preheat your grill.

2. 2

   Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add the salt and fat.

3. 3

   When salt is dissolved and fat is melted, add the collard greens to the boiling water and simmer for 3 minutes.

4. 4

   Remove collards from the water and immediately plunge into the ice water to halt the cooking and preserve the beautiful green color.

5. 5

   (When removed from the boiling water, the collards should be coated with the fat - that's what you want).

6. 6

   Remove the collards from the ice water a leaf at a time and stack them flat on top of each other, about 7 to 9 leaves high.

7. 7

   Oil your grill well and grill the stacked collard leaves until done, turning once, about 5 minutes per side (depending on the temperature of your grill).

8. 8

   Cut stacked collards in half or quarters, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
