I just use a vinaigrette salad dressing, then grill them.

I LOVE portabella mushrooms -

I also marinate, put in aluminum foil and bake or grill.

Also, for the baby bellas, I make stuffed mushrooms -

cut off the stem and chop up
chop up onions and garlic and saute until soft
add stems and other veggies sliced fine (green and
red peppers, celery, little bit of carrots, etc.)
cook until soft
add a little bit of bread crumbs
stuff mushroom heads and then bake at 350 for about 10-15 minutes.
yum!

What is a good marinade for them? I've used a mixture of olive oil, worcestershire, balsamic vinegar and garlic, but would like to try something different.

Also, what are the different methods of cooking them? I've only grilled.

There's a restaurant in Austin, Shady Grove that makes a great sandwich with them, they call it "Hippy Sandwich". Basically it's grilled portobellos, grilled eggplant, grilled onion, grilled tomato, all on a whole grain roll with a nice sort of mayo sauce on it. Just delicious!

I am an avid portabella mushroom eater. Serious, one week i had them 4 days in a row....yum!

I have used the same recipe every time.

1/4 cup olive oil
2-3 tbsp soya sauce
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
This is good for 3-4 mushrooms.
Emulsify with a whisk...and really this is the best part. It gets all creamy and thick..i cant stand it!

Marinate them like 1-2 hours

BBQ them...most important! They taste the best this way. Although tonight i used a grill in the oven.bout 15 mins 7 each side at 425..it was good mind you..but BBQ is the ultimate in taste sensation.
All my non veggie friends love this. Every once in a while i get the "wow, these would taste great on a steak with some onions!" LOL, i bet it would!

RE: RECIPE: Portabella Mushroom

this is my favourite special recipe that i got from watching the food network. it is simple and delicious, please try it.

start out by making a typical italian salad:
2-3 organic vine tomatoes, diced
equal amount (3/4 c.) of !fresh! mozza cheese, diced same size
2 tbs. or more good extra virgin olive oil
4-5 leaves fresh basil, finely chopped
salt and pep

then drizzle your bellas in olive oil, add salt and pep and grill for 5 mins each side. you can also use a frying pan like i usually have to. use med-high heat. don't take them off too soon. put the salad on top and really enjoy that delectable taste you crazy fungus lovers..

Here is a link that might be useful: Food Network site, i love it
