I'm not sure what you mean by "shredding the flesh" but I just put them on a plate & pull off the leaves one by one, dip them in the mayo & scrape them between my teeth----the same way I eat any (non baby) one.
They're not that small!
(Although it seems likely that whatever grill you are using has a
very wide grid/mesh/ridges)
Scraping them between your teeth whilst pulling with your fingers is what I meant - if the artichoke is cut in quarters I can't visualise how you'd get to do this satisfactorily, most of the leaves would have been cut giving you smaller and fiddlier bits to try and get purchase on (with your teeth).
Doesn't it make it more difficult?
