Don’t knock it until you try it no matter what Gordon Ramsay would have you believe about grilled romaine. This salad has become a favorite of my family and it expected when I’m BBQing steak or other meat heavy food. The BBQ adds a nice touch of flavor to the lettuce and combined with the sauce, you have an extra special salad that I guess not everyone will appreciate.
