Tear the mushrooms
Remove tough stems and tear portobellos into varied, sturdy pieces. Keep some natural curved cap edges.

Meaty portobello, blistered cherry tomatoes and balsamic with plenty of smoky, collapsed edges.

Tomatoes split when they are ready, not when the rest of the skewer looks tidy. Use mixed sizes and thread them beside thick torn mushroom pieces so the result is juicy, savoury and naturally irregular.
Tick each step as you go. Built-in timers keep the important moments close.

Whisk oil, balsamic, tamari, thyme and garlic. Toss through mushrooms and tomatoes for 10 minutes.
Build eight loose skewers. Pierce tomatoes through the stem end and give mushroom pieces enough room to lose moisture.
Barbecue over medium-high heat for 8 to 10 minutes, turning carefully, until mushrooms are browned and some tomatoes split.
Rest on a rimmed platter for 3 minutes, then roll the skewers through the balsamic mushroom juices before serving.
