any veggie BBQ tips?

I always do tofu, cherry tomato, pepper and aubergine skewers.

oh and non-food suggestions welcome.

such as. do think about what you are cooking with. most 'charcoal' briquettes are impregnated with hydrocarbon compounds and stuff like coal dust - releasing all sorts of particulates and VOC's. Proper charcoal is better and some places sell charcoal made from waste timber (pallets, bark, sawdusk etc). Try to make sure the charcoal hasn't been imported from tropical forests.

Fuel such as propane burn cleaner but release lots of CO2.

if you can't find local charcoal B&Q might stock Bioregional Charcoal. they do in the UK anywaysssssssssssssssssssssssssssss

Corn in tin foil in the bbq as opposed to on it. Likewise for sweet potatoes etc etc.

plantains! this recipe's close to how i've done them before: http://www.brookstropicals.com/pages/recipe_plantain.html

they're quite tasty but win mostly for being a change from the skewers-and-salads thing.

lots of veggies on skewers dipped in a lovely marinate of some kind. The marinate is the key. soya sauce and lemon and garlic and stuff. yum
BBQ season rolling around...
