Steps:
- Prepare a grill for direct and indirect heat: For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes, turn off one of the side burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
- Heat a 10-inch cast-iron skillet on direct heat and add the bacon; cook, stirring often, until crispy, about 5 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel lined plate; set aside.
- Add the potatoes and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir to coat with the bacon fat, then move to indirect heat and cover the grill. Cook, uncovering the grill and stirring every 5 minutes, until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
- Sprinkle with the Cheddar and move back to direct heat. Cook, uncovered, until the potato bottoms are golden and the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes, depending on the heat of your grill. Let cool for 10 minutes, then dot with the sour cream and sprinkle with the scallions and reserved bacon.

Steps:
- 1. Cut a large piece of heavy duty foil (or regular foil doubled up), about 18x22 inches.
- 2. Place the sliced potatoes (peeled or not, your choice) and onions on the foil. Dot with the butter, then sprinkle the cheese, parsley, Worcestershire over all. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Partially fold up the foil around the potatoes. Pour in broth. Sprinkle with bacon bits. Seal edges tightly.
- 3. Grill the packet on a covered grill. About 35 minutes in a medium hot grill. Until potatoes are tender.
Tips:
- Select the Right Potatoes: Choose firm, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Potatoes; they hold their shape well during grilling.
- Slice Potatoes Evenly: Uniform slices ensure even cooking and prevent some pieces from becoming overcooked while others remain undercooked.
- Parboil Potatoes: Partially boiling the potatoes before grilling helps them cook more evenly and prevents them from becoming too crispy on the outside while remaining raw in the center.
- Use Quality Cheese: Opt for good-quality melting cheese like Mozzarella, Cheddar, Gruyère, or a blend of your favorites for a rich and flavorful grilled cheese potato.
- Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings; a good balance of salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs like rosemary or thyme enhances the flavors tremendously.
- Grill Over Medium Heat: Maintain a medium heat on your grill to prevent the potatoes from burning while allowing them to cook thoroughly.
- Flip Carefully: Use a wide spatula to gently flip the potatoes to prevent them from breaking apart.
- Add Toppings: Experiment with different toppings like crumbled bacon, sliced green onions, or chopped parsley for an extra layer of flavor and texture.
- Serve Hot: Grilled cheese potatoes are best enjoyed immediately after grilling, while the cheese is melted and gooey and the potatoes are tender and flavorful.
