Barbecued Beef Marrow Bones

As a starter, marrow bones delicately seasoned with chives are both surprising and interesting to serve, especially since they are easier to make than you might think. In this recipe, they are drained overnight before grilling on the barbecue. When done, the marrow is removed from the bones. Known for its subtle nutty and grilled meaty taste, it’s great when spread on toasted sourdough bread.
