Trust me on this one.

Take a whole head of garlic and separate the cloves, removing the EXCESS paper but don't peel the individual cloves. Just use the larger ones.

Aluminum foil. Olive oil. Place the cloves on the foil, drizzle Olive oil liberally and then fold up the foil to make a mostly tight container.
(Throw in a couple fresh basil leaves for added adventure)

Put them on the grill while you are doing whatever else you're cooking.

When done, the garlic will squeeze out of the remaining paper like butter. Spread on bread (French, Italian, whatever) and sop up a bit of the oil with.

Chef's side or share, but totally yum.

OH....Oysters in the shell done on the grill are completely delicious also.

Check out Alton Brown's "Good Eats" series on YouTube. Has a couple vids on grilling that are pretty good;
