When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
Place the mushrooms and poblanos on the grill and cook them for about 10 minutes total, flipping your mushrooms halfway through and the peppers often, until softened and slightly charred.
Add cheese to your mushrooms and grill until melted.
To assemble, spread the avocado mash on one side of the rolls and the sour cream mixture on the other side. Add 2 mushrooms to each roll, top it with your peppers and tomato slices and serve warm.
