Plus, they can easily be paired with other camping favorites like grilled vegetables or even placed on a bun for a campfire burger.

When preparing grilled portobello caps, ensure to properly marinate the mushrooms to enhance their flavor. You can experiment with different marinades based on your preference, but keep in mind that fresh ingredients tend to deliver the best results. Always allow the mushrooms to absorb the marinade for at least 30 minutes before grilling for maximum flavor. Also, be cautious with cooking times to prevent burning, as mushrooms can cook quickly over high heat.
