Instructions

  1. Prepare the mushrooms by cutting off the stems, then use a spoon to scoop out the brown gills. Use a damp paper towel to gently clean any dirt off the surface.
  2. Use the tip of a paring knife to cut ½-inch crosshatch pattern on the tops of the mushroom caps, about 1/16-inch deep scores.
  3. In a small bowl whisk together olive oil, vinegar, soy sauce, minced garlic, salt, and pepper.
  4. Add mushrooms to a large plastic bag or baking dish. Turn to coat in the marinade and allow to sit for 30 to 60 minutes.
  5. Preheat grill over medium-high heat (350 to 400ºF/177 to 204ºC).
  6. Clean the grill and then carefully grease the cooking grates with tongs and a paper towel dipped in oil.
  7. Remove the mushroom from the marinade then place on the hot grill, cap-side down.
  8. Cover and cook until mushrooms have released their liquid with charred marks, 4 to 6 minutes.
  9. Flip the mushrooms and cook covered for 3 to 5 minutes.
  10. If adding cheese place it on after flipping, cover and cook until melted.
  11. Place the grilled portobellos on toasted burger buns and add desired toppings.
