Beer-Can Chicken and 74 Other Offbeat Recipes for the Grill" by Steven Raichlen
List of Ingredients
1 thin loaf French bread (20 to 24 inches long)
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, or more as needed
2 cloves garlic, halved
Recipe
Set up the grill for direct grilling and preheat to medium-high (400 degrees).
Cut the bread sharply on the diagonal into ½-inch slices. Lightly brush each side of the slices with olive oil (don't overdo it, or the dripping oil will cause a fire).
Arrange bread slices on the hot grate and grill until nicely toasted on both sides, 1 to 3 minutes per side, turning with tongs. Don't turn your back on the grill; grilled bread burns quickly. Transfer the toast to a platter or wire rack.
Rub each slice of toast on both sides with the cut garlic (or have your guests do this). Serve hot or at room temperature.
