I thought this was terrible on the grill. The flavors were weak, and I could not get is as tender as I like it without the tips becoming charred black. BUT, I wanted to give the idea of this recipe a second chance, so the next time I tried it, I cooked it in a saute pan instead of on the grill. I was able to get it nice and tender, and still enjoy the tips, and enjoy the FLAVOR. Since it cooked the flavors in in the pan as opposed to dripping them out and soaking up the smoke on the grill. FOUR STARS IN THE PAN!!!

These are great! Probably the best asparagus on the bbq yet! Have made a few times now. Always a hit! Still havn't put the sesame seeds on just because I havn't had any. Can't wait to try them with the seeds! Thanks for the recipe!

Sorry, didn't like it at all. I LOVE grilled asparagus but definitely did not like this marinade. I will stick to olive oil and sea salt from now on.

Made exactly as written and really liked these. Usually I just coat asparagus with a little olive oil, sea salt and black pepper and grill. I had bought sesame oil and seeds for another recipe and was looking for other ways to use them. This was a nice change - a little Asian flair. Will definitely make these again!

oh man, can i give it 6 stars? this is so stinking good! my husband said these were the best asparagus he's ever had and i tend to agree. definitely grill these, although i'm sure they're good broiled, there's no substitute for the taste of the grill and it goes sooo well with this! i copied the recipe exactly, except for the sesame seeds to garnish, just because i didn't have any. still amazing though. i'll never make asparagus any other way!

Given that it was 20 degrees in Wisconsin today, I'm sure I'll be forgiven that I didn't grill this. I tossed the asparagus with the soy sauce mixture right on a foil-lined cookie sheet, and roasted for 10 minutes at 425 degrees. I initially wasn't going to add the brown sugar but it was such a small amount I decided to after all. You really can't taste it, but I do believe it served to tame the somewhat bitter taste asparagus can sometimes have and mellow it out. I loved the combination of flavors here--just make sure you don't confuse toasted sesame oil, which is basically a finishing oil, with regular sesame oil, or a lot of flavor will be forfeited.

anybody who says asparagus isn't good hasn't tried this recipe. I am in love with a broccoli recipe that is very similar to this one but uses butter instead of oil and cashews instead of sesame seeds. I didn't end up even using any seeds when I made this and used a smaller amount of olive oil (instead of sesame oil) but it was still delicious. I'll be making this again for sure

Soy and sesame are obviously a classic combo, and they work very well here with the asparagus.

The flavor was amazing and the asparagus on the grill was perfectly cooked. I actually made the sauce up ahead of time and let the asparagus marinate in it for a few hours. I will definitely make this again!

Good summer side dish. I thought it needed a little something though, but I'm not sure what. I even let it sit in the marinade for about an hour before grilling

Nice Asian twist with the sesame oil!! I love the aroma of sesame oil. I made it last night with all the exact ingredients. I never really follow the measurements with any recipe. I had extra marinate so I had my fiance baste it on the asparagus while grilling. This is an awesome recipe! When summer is over, I will try it on the stove. I believe it will be equally tasty!
