BAKED POTATOES ON THE GRILL



Baked Potatoes on the Grill image

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.

Categories     Potato

Time 40m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/3 cup olive oil
2 lbs new potatoes, sliced thinly (1/4-inch, the food processor makes that go very quickly)
2 slices of a sweet onions or 4 slices yellow onions, thinly sliced
3/4 teaspoon dried rosemary leaves or 1 teaspoon chopped fresh rosemary leaf
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper or 1 pinch cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • 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.).

GRILLED POTATOES AND ONION



Grilled Potatoes and Onion image

Always cook up a package of potatoes and onions with the rest of your grilled meal! Start early, because it takes about a half an hour to cook. These cook over indirect heat (off to the side), so you can grill other things at the same time.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 medium (2-1/4" to 3" dia, raw)s potatoes, sliced
1 red onion, sliced
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
4 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • Preheat grill for medium heat.
