Instructions

• Remove the loose, papery outer skin from the head of garlic. Cut about ½ inch off the top to expose the cloves. Place the garlic head on an 8-inch square of aluminum foil and drizzle 1 teaspoon of the oil over the cloves. Fold up the foil sides and seal to make a packet, leaving a little room for the expansion of steam.
• Prepare the grill for indirect cooking over medium heat (350° to 450°F).
  Place a large foil pan on top of the Flavorizer bars, below the cooking grate. Fill it halfway with room temperature water. Prepare the grill for cooking over medium heat (400°F).
• Brush the cooking grates clean. Grill the garlic packet over indirect medium heat, with the lid closed, until the cloves are soft, 30 to 45 minutes. Remove from the grill and allow to cool. Squeeze the garlic from the individual cloves into a small bowl, discarding the skins. Add the remaining 3 tablespoons oil and mash the garlic and oil together with a fork to form a paste.
