Recipe Note

Easy recipe for the non-culinary school folks who just like to eat artichokes. Boil and grill. This is a recipe from trial and error, so some culinary people may have issues with how long it's cooked, etc. But it's just, plain good this way. My wife and and I just can't eat artichokes any other way now. Read the recipe, then be sure to look at any comments for any improvement or preferable changes. Lawry's® isn't necessary, but adds some flavor.
