BAKED POTATOES ON THE GRILL
This is a recipe I use to throw a potato on the grill while I am grilling. I like how it makes the skin crispy and the center soft. Use whatever toppings you like, as in butter, sour cream, cheese, and bacon bits.

BAKED POTATOES ON THE GRILL
Turns out the best way to make a baked potato might be to not bake it at all. Grilling it yields the same fluffy interior with the bonus of an underlying hint of smoky flavor. Since the potatoes are cooked over direct heat, it's important to use heavy-duty aluminum foil. (In a pinch, you can use two layers of regular foil.)

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium heat. Use a paring knife to poke each potato 4 to 6 times. Rub the potatoes with the olive oil, then generously season with salt and pepper.
- Wrap each potato in a 12-by-12-inch piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil, then place on the grill. (If using a charcoal grill, place over the area with coals.) Grill with the lid closed until a paring knife slides easily into each potato, 50 to 60 minutes.
- Remove from the grill and let cool for 5 minutes before unwrapping. Serve with butter, sour cream and chives.

GRILLED POTATOES OR ROASTED POTATOES ON THE GRILL
My favorite way to have potatoes. It works the best to do the first step (microwaving the potatoes) earlier in the day.

Steps:
- Cook potatoes in microwave until tender but firm (about 3-4 minutes).
- Cool (at least an hour works best) and cube.
- Microwave onion pieces for about 1-2 minutes so they are slightly soft.
- Mix with cubed potatoes.
- Coat thoroughly (but lightly) with olive oil and as much seasoning salt as you like.
- Place mixture on grill, I recommend using a vegetable/seafood grate, over hot coals. Cover to prevent flair-ups due to the oil.
- Cook approximately 20 minutes, until golden, turning about every 5 minutes.
- Serve with sour cream and/or ketchup.
- This method can be used for squash, broccoli, carrots etc.
- You can also use garlic salt or other spices like oregano in place of, or in addition to, the seasoning salt.

Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Smaller, waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Potatoes hold their shape better on the grill than larger, starchy potatoes like Russets.
- Parboil your potatoes: This will help them cook more evenly on the grill. To parboil, place the potatoes in a pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork. Drain the potatoes and let them cool slightly.
- Toss the potatoes in oil and seasonings: This will help them crisp up on the grill and add flavor. You can use olive oil, melted butter, or even a flavored oil like garlic or herb oil. Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.
- Grill the potatoes over medium heat: This will help prevent them from burning. Grill the potatoes for 10-15 minutes per side, or until they are tender and slightly charred.
- Serve the potatoes immediately: Grilled potatoes are best served hot off the grill. You can top them with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, sour cream, salsa, or guacamole.
Conclusion:
Grilled potatoes are a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed all summer long. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them crispy or soft, grilled potatoes are sure to be a hit at your next cookout.
