How do you grill tofu?

We have friends coming over tomorrow night for a barbecue and one of the girls is a vegetarian. She said it's no problem, she'll just bring some tofu for us to throw on the grill for her. But we have NO idea how to do it--how long do you cook it? Any other tips we might need?

If she is bringing the tofu, she will probably have it prepped. If not, cut the tofu
into large cubes or cut horizontally into 3 slices. Place on plate on clean towel or several paper towels. Top with more towels and another plate and put weight (just a pound or so) on top. This gets rid of extra moisture so it doesn't break up and has a meatier texture. After 15-30 minutes, place the tofu in a marinade or brush with oil and season. It doesn't take long to cook-essentially, once you have good grill marks, you can flip it and cook the other side. Or if you did cubes, treat just like kebob meat. It is not much different than cooking fish or chicken.

Did this work? I saw this today. We grill tofu all the time and we do almost to a tee what the above poster suggested. It is delicious. Also, if you want to try scallops when they are in season, there is nothing like it.
