How to throw explosives, e.g. a grenade in Fallout 4?

I have some grenades, and molotov cocktails.

Yet I cannot throw them. I have them in my favorite list, yet selecting them does nothing. How am I supposed to throw them? And can I throw them in VATS menu?

I'm playing using the XBOX 360 controller.

Best Answer

You can throw them in VATS. Unequip all weapons, including grenades. Then only equip the grenades. Have your character unholster so that the grenade is showing in his hand. Now you can use the regular trigger button to use a grenade and throw them in VATS. I've only done this with frags so I'm not sure if it'll work on the others, but it should.
