If you haven’t tried delicata squash before, the grill is an excellent introduction. It’s easy to prepare, as its thin skin doesn’t require peeling, and its sweetness nicely balances the char from the grill.
Prepare the grill for Direct Medium-High Heat cooking, 450°–500°F. Preheat for 15 minutes and brush the grill grates clean.
Set the grill to 475°F. Preheat for 15 minutes and brush the grill grates clean.
Whisk the oil, vinegar, honey, mustard, and thyme together in a large mixing bowl.
To prepare the squash, first cut it in half crossways and use a spoon to scoop out the seeds. Then, cut the squash into ½" thick rings.
Toss the squash rings in the dressing, making sure they’re fully coated.
Place them on the grill and cook, with the lid closed for 8 minutes. Flip the squash and continue cooking until they’re tender when pierced with a wooden skewer or probe.
Remove them from the grill, toss the cooked squash again in the remaining dressing before transferring them to a platter to serve.
