Clean the portobello mushrooms by wiping them with a damp cloth. Remove the stems if desired.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together olive oil, balsamic vinegar, minced garlic, thyme, rosemary, and black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the mushrooms in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the mushrooms, ensuring each cap is thoroughly coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish, and let the mushrooms marinate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour in the refrigerator for more flavor.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
Once the grill is hot, place the marinated mushrooms, gill side up, on the grill grates.
Grill mushrooms for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have char marks.
Remove the mushrooms from the grill and drizzle with fresh lemon juice before serving.
Serve as a main dish or slice them up to use as a topping for salads or sandwiches.
