Grilled Asparagus Rafts

Grouping asparagus spears together on double skewers makes it easier to turn them on the grill…and you are less likely to lose a few between the grill grates! This works when the asparagus is fairly thick and the skewers thin. Thick wooden skewers will split young, thin asparagus. Generally, wooden skewers need to be soaked in water at least 30 minutes so they don’t burn, but it’s okay to skip that step when the food grills for only 5 minutes.
