Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
Remove any green leaves from the cauliflower and rinse the head under cold water. Pat dry with a clean kitchen towel.
Slice the cauliflower into thick steaks, about 3/4 inch to 1 inch thick, starting from the top down to the stem.
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, finely chopped parsley, thyme, and rosemary. Mince the garlic and add it to the herb mixture.
Add lemon juice, salt, and black pepper to the herb oil, stirring well to combine all ingredients.
Brush both sides of the cauliflower steaks generously with the herb oil mixture, ensuring even coverage.
Place the cauliflower steaks on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes on each side, until tender and charred lines appear.
Once cooked, remove from the grill and transfer to a serving platter.
Drizzle any remaining herb oil over the top of the grilled cauliflower steaks before serving.
Serve warm as a delicious nut-free side dish or a light vegetarian main course.
