On your next holiday or special occasion, grill all day. Photo: Getty Images.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

If you\u2019re planning to grill for any of the several holidays coming up \u2014 Independence Day, Labor Day, or a special birthday or anniversary dinner \u2014 why not just make an entire day of it?<\/p>\n

Not only can you grill all day long in order to fashion an entire meal, should you fancy you might also put together one entire day\u2019s eating from one grill.<\/p>\n

Some cultures cook entire meals in or on a single outdoor heat source, usually some sort of pit, such as New Zealand\u2019s Maori hangi, or a goat barbacoa and its accompaniments in Oaxaca, southern Mexico.<\/p>\n

If it\u2019s an aboveground grill, though, just pace out the meal in stages. It\u2019s a grand way to set out a buffet of food for a large group.<\/p>\n

If you choose to do breakfast on the grill, fire up foods such as grilled pineapple or peaches, or grilled French toast, bacon and ham slices. Easy peasy.<\/p>\n

You can also start grilling early for foods that can safely sit around on platters for a good portion of the day before the main event. Many sorts of grilled vegetables fit this bill: sliced soft squashes (zucchini, yellow summer squash, chayote), red or green tomato halves, large mushroom caps, cobs of corn (with or without husking), eggplant slices or small whole eggplants, onion wedges, asparagus, different kinds of sweet or spicy peppers, wedges of romaine lettuce (yes!) or radicchio, halved or sliced fennel bulb, and parboiled or blanched firm vegetables such as potato slices (or small whole spuds), yam or sweet potato, beet, carrot or parsnip.<\/p>\n

If you soften up (in the microwave or in boiling water or steam) cruciferous vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli, cabbage, Brussels sprouts, and turnip, they come off the grill nicely, too. In addition to soft squashes, if you pre-cook slightly firm squashes such as acorn or butternut, finishing chunks of them on the grill makes for added flavor.<\/p>\n

Grilling the ingredients that go into sauces or condiments adds a depth of flavor and aroma that normal, stovetop cooking doesn\u2019t. And these foods can be made well before mealtime. Grill tomatoes, tomatillos, peppers, corn, even garlic and ginger, in order to prepare salsa rojo or chimichurri or other piquant and flavorful sauces for grilled meats and vegetables.<\/p>\n

Make a compound butter from grilled scallions or leeks (or ramps, if they\u2019re still around the market), chopping them finely and mixing them into room temperature unsalted butter. That\u2019d be a nice treat with which to top other grilled foods down the line.<\/p>\n

More ahead-of-time grilling possibilities: low-water, so-called \u201cgrilling cheeses\u201d such as the Greek or Greek-style halloumi or kefalotyri, Mexican queso panela, some drier provolone, and Scandinavian or American cheeses labeled \u201cgrilling cheese.\u201d<\/p>\n

Closer to main mealtime is the hour to begin grilling flatbreads and slices of firm crusted bread, slathered with olive oil and flavored with pepper, salt and herbs. Possibilities for grilled breads are nearly endless.<\/p>\n

And, we\u2019re off: shellfish, seafood, freshwater fishes, all manner of beast or fowl\u2014whole, fileted or as sausages\u2014and the vegetarian or vegan possibilities of grilled firm tofu, tempeh and seitan. Recipes for all these likewise close to endless.<\/p>\n

But don\u2019t forget dessert; it, too, can fly off the grill. Grilled fruits, again, are delicious (bananas or watermelon are especially tasty when grilled). So is grilled pound cake or other sweet firm baked goods.<\/p>\n

S\u2019mores are a gimme as a grilled dessert, but consider making small packets of them, instead: two squares of graham cracker sandwiching some semi-sweet chocolate chips or a thin bar of chocolate, and a marshmallow or two, all wrapped in a foot-square sheet of aluminum foil and heated five minutes on the waning embers of the grill. Kids go crazy is what I\u2019ve heard.<\/p>\n

Ingredients <\/strong><\/h3>\n

4 garlic cloves, finely chopped<\/p>\n

1\u20442 cup finely chopped rosemary<\/p>\n

1\u20444 cup olive oil, plus more for drizzling<\/p>\n

12 lamb rib chops (about 2 and 1\u20444 pounds total)<\/p>\n

Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper<\/p>\n

1 pound cherry tomatoes, preferably on the vine<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong>Directions<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Combine garlic, rosemary, and 1\u20444 cup oil in a large bowl. Working one at a time, pound lamb chops between 2 sheets of plastic wrap to about 1\u20444″ thick; trim any excess fat. Season with salt and pepper and add to marinade; turn to coat. Cover and chill at least 2 hours and up to 1 day. Prepare a grill for medium-high heat. Remove lamb chops from marinade and wipe off marinade.<\/p>\n

Grill lamb chops, turning often and moving around on grill as needed, until charred on both sides, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a platter. Drizzle tomatoes with oil; season with salt and pepper. Grill in a grill basket or large cast-iron skillet until lightly charred and blistered, about 4 minutes. Serve tomatoes alongside lamb.<\/p>\n
