"These are a nice alternative to your typical ham and cheese sandwiches," says Jillian Moseley-Willians of Barrie, Ontario. "You can replace the Swiss cheese with Brie or Camembert, then heat the sandwich in the oven or microwave until the cheese is melted," she adds.

GRILLED HAM AND ASPARAGUS



Grilled Ham and Asparagus image

Grilled Ham and Asparagus

Provided by Elias Cairo, Olympia Provisions, Portland

Time 40m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 4

2 ⅛ lbs fat asparagus (green or purple), tough ends removed
1 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
About 1/2 tsp. each kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
¾ lb thinly sliced Swiss country ham* or prosciutto, pieces about 7 in. long

Steps:

  • On 2 rimmed baking sheets, toss asparagus with olive oil, season with salt and pepper, and divide into 20 to 24 portions of 2 or 3 spears. Cut ham in half lengthwise if needed to make 20 to 24 pieces. Wrap each portion of asparagus around the middle with ham. Seal in a plastic bag and pack in a cooler.
  • Build a fire (see "Campfire 101" below) and let it burn to medium (you can hold your hand 5 in. above cooking grate only 5 to 7 seconds). Set a charcoal grill grate on the firepit cooking grate (so the asparagus won't fall through). Grill asparagus bundles, turning often, until ham is browned and asparagus is tender-crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. * Find Landrauchschinken at olympiaprovisions.com
  • DO YOUR RESEARCH. Before you go, check that your campground allows fires and you can bring in wood or buy it there. You'll want large logs, twigs for tinder, medium sticks for kindling, a butane lighter, newspaper, grilling tongs and gloves, home char- coal grill grate, and paper towels and oil for cleaning grates.
  • TIME IT RIGHT . The perfect fire for cooking has low flames plus plenty of embers. It takes 1 to 11⁄2 hours to burn down to this stage.
  • BUILD THE FIRE . In a fire ring with cooking grate pushed away, make a log cabin with 6 large logs: 2 parallel to each other, 2 crisscrossed on top, and a third set like the first. Crumple newspaper into the center and add a handful of twigs. Make a tipi over the twigs with some medium sticks. Ignite paper. Gently fan fire until flames emerge.
  • START A FEEDER FIRE. Off to the side of the main fire, ignite a second, smaller one with just a few logs. Let fires burn.
  • ARRANGE AND ADJUST . Using tongs, spread a bed of embers with low flames under the cooking grate and in area needed for dutch oven cooking. As you cook, add fuel from feeder fire.
  • PUT IT OUT . Never walk away from a fire that's still burning. When it's down to cinders, spread the remains in the fire ring and douse with water.

GRILLED PROSCIUTTO WRAPPED ASPARAGUS



Grilled Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus image

Provided by Food Network

Time 15m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

24 spears fresh asparagus about 1½ lbs. (*See Cook's Note)
Drizzle olive oil
Drizzle balsamic vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
Freshly ground black pepper to taste
24 slices prosciutto
12 - 6 inch bamboo skewers soaked in cold water for 1 hour
Tony Roma's BBQ Baby Back Ribs

Steps:

  • Trim the ends off of the asparagus spears and place in a large bowl or pan and cover with cold water and let stand for 1 hour. This will allow the asparagus to absorb a little moisture and stay crisp & moist when grilling. Drain asparagus. Drizzle asparagus with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar. Not too much just a little, add minced garlic and season to taste with freshly ground black pepper. Gently mix to evenly coat the asparagus. Lay a slice of prosciutto vertically (short end at the bottom) on a flat work surface. Place one seasoned asparagus spear across the middle of the prosciutto at the bottom end and roll up the asparagus tightly in the prosciutto. Repeat with remaining asparagus. Line up 4 prosciutto wrapped asparagus spears.
  • Skewer the 4 spears together, 2 skewers per group of 4 wrapped asparagus.
  • This will make it easier to grill the asparagus. Repeat until you have 6 skewers of 4. They end up looking like little rafts of prosciutto wrapped asparagus.
  • Preheat grill to medium high 450-550° F. Cook asparagus until tender and prosciutto crisps, about 3-4 minutes per side.
  • Remove from grill, drizzle with a little extra olive oil and balsamic vinegar and serve immediately with grilled Tony Roma's BBQ Baby Back Ribs.

GRILLED HAM AND ASPARAGUS PANINI



Grilled Ham and Asparagus Panini image

Grilled Ham and Asparagus Panini Recipe from Festival Foods. This is by far my most favorite sandwich of the month. I like mine with roasted asparagus and sourdough bread. Another great option is using some melty Fontina or farmers cheese. I have also made this with thick pita bread and it adds another dimension. I love to make this sandwich for those days when you want something from those expensive Bistros, but also want to make it your own. Please try your own style and let me know how it turns out for you!
