Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 heads broccoli
Olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 cup buttermilk
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup finely sliced scallions
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons finely chopped dill
2 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 tablespoon spicy brown mustard
Freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 cup dried cherries
1/2 cup roasted salted peanuts, whole or roughly chopped

Steps:

Set up your grill for indirect heat. If using a charcoal grill, build the coals on one side only. If using a gas grill, heat one side only.
Trim the bottom inch off of the broccoli stems and discard or save in your freezer for a soup. Quarter the broccoli lengthwise into large pieces and place in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Place the broccoli on the direct heat side of the grill and char on all sides, about 1 to 2 minutes per side. Move to the indirect side of the grill, close the grill lid and roast until cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream, scallions, vinegar, dill, brown sugar and mustard. Season to taste with the fresh nutmeg, salt and pepper. Remove the broccoli to a serving platter and drizzle with as much of the buttermilk dressing as you'd like. Top with the dried cherries and peanuts. Serve!
