BBQ POTATOES
These BBQ potatoes are the perfect side dish to make for summer cookouts or anytime you're in the mood to fire up the grill. We love how easy prep is with just four ingredients - red potatoes, vegetable oil, McCormick® Grill Mates® Barbecue Seasoning and an onion - and a sheet of foil. Just like with our grilled mushroom bundles and sweet potato bundles, the foil wrap creates a pocket of heat for quick, even steaming that results in crisp yet tender potatoes full of irresistible smoky-meets-savory flavor. Whip up this BBQ potato recipe to serve alongside anything from BBQ pulled pork to BBQ meatloaf, and get creative by adding additional vegetables like sweet corn, baby carrots and bell peppers.

Steps:
- If your barbecue hasn't already been heated, light and heat until the ashes turn grey. Put the potatoes in a large saucepan of cold water and bring to the boil. Once boiling, cook for 5 mins until slightly tender.
- Drain and leave to steam-dry for 2 mins. Transfer to a large sheet of foil, coat in the olive oil and season well. Make sure the potatoes are sitting flat against the foil so each one gets charred when grilled. Wrap in the foil like a parcel, and wrap again to ensure the potatoes are completely covered. Cook on the barbecue for 10 mins.
- Check they are cooked by inserting a skewer into one of the potatoes. Carefully remove from the foil and serve in a dish.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Look for small, firm potatoes with thin skins, such as Yukon Gold or baby red potatoes.
- Wash the potatoes thoroughly: Scrub the potatoes with a vegetable brush to remove any dirt or debris.
- Pierce the potatoes: Use a fork to pierce the potatoes several times. This will help them cook evenly.
- Season the potatoes: Toss the potatoes with olive oil, salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
- Wrap the potatoes tightly in foil: Make sure the potatoes are completely covered in foil to prevent them from drying out.
- Cook the potatoes over medium heat: Cook the potatoes for 45-60 minutes, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Let the potatoes rest before serving: Let the potatoes rest for 5-10 minutes before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
