Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Cut the pumpkin in half and remove the seeds with a spoon. Slice each half into 1/2-inch thick slices.
In a small saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Once melted, add finely chopped rosemary and thyme, and minced garlic. Continue to melt it for 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally, then remove from heat.
Brush both sides of the pumpkin slices with olive oil, then season them with salt and black pepper.
Place the pumpkin slices on the preheated grill. Cook for about 8-10 minutes on each side, or until tender and grill marks appear.
Once grilled, remove the pumpkin slices from the grill and brush them generously with the prepared herb butter.
Serve immediately as a side dish or appetizer, drizzled with any remaining herb butter for extra flavor.
