1
Preheat grill to medium-high heat (400ยฐF). In a large saucepan, bring water to a boil over high heat. Gradually whisk in cornmeal and reduce heat to medium. Cook, stirring constantly, for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in salt, Parmesan cheese, and thyme. Transfer mixture to a greased 9x13 inch baking dish and let cool to room temperature, about 10 minutes.

Once cooled, transfer the polenta to a lightly oiled grill mat or a piece of aluminum foil brushed with oil. Using a spatula, shape the polenta into a round, about 1 inch thick. Grill, turning occasionally, until the bottom is golden brown and crispy, about 5-7 minutes per side. While grilling, brush with butter and olive oil, and sprinkle with garlic.
