Bok Choy Roasted Garlic Ginger Sesame

The bok choy looked great at the market, so I decided to try something different from my usual pork belly. I had a tri-tip on the smoker and will toss the bok choy on at the same time since they cook at about the same time and temperature, instead of the oven. This has a nice kick of spice to smokiness of the tri tip Tri Tip / Beef / BBQ Smoke / Recipes | Cooking with Aloha, Texas Style
