For a deeper smoky flavor, consider using hardwood charcoal or adding wood chips to your gas grill. Don't overcook the romaine! You want it slightly wilted and charred, not completely limp. Experiment with different seasonings. Garlic powder, smoked paprika, or a pinch of red pepper flakes can add interesting variations. If you don't have a grill, you can achieve a similar effect using a grill pan on your stovetop.
