BAKED POTATOES ON THE GRILL
Ever wonder how to make baked potatoes on the grill? It's easy! Just wrap the potatoes in a double layer of foil (which keeps in the steam that cooks your potato) and transform your gas or charcoal grill into an oven. The result: a lightly smoke-flavored skin and a fluffy tender potato on the inside that you can flavor with a dollop of sour cream and your favorite seasonings.

Steps:
- When the fire is lit but not ready, lay out 8 pieces of foil (about 12 by 8 inches) and brush with olive oil.
- Shingle an eighth of the potatoes in a circle in the center of each piece of foil. Break the onion slices into rings and scatter evenly over each potato ring. Equally divide the remaining olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper over the potatoes.
- With the potato rings intact, bring the two large edges of foil to the center, sealing firmly.
- Fold over the other two short edges to seal. Place on a medium or medium-hot fire for 20 to 25 minutes or until the potatoes are cooked through (Cooking in foil packets is not an exact science, so remember to check one packet after 20 minutes for doneness and to make sure the bottom isn't burning.
- If necessary, finish cooking with another foil sheet under the packets.).

- Grill the potatoes over medium heat: This will prevent them from burning.
- Shake the foil packet occasionally: This will help the potatoes cook evenly.
- Cook the potatoes until they are tender: This can be checked by inserting a fork into the potatoes.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: With your favorite dipping sauce, such as sour cream or ranch dressing.
