Potatoes…on the Grill

One of my family’s favorite side dishes to accompany pork chops or steaks when cooking on the grill is this potato recipe. The ingredients are simple. The preparation is a breeze. The taste is terrific. I hope you and your family enjoy the recipe too!

Potatoes on the Grill
6-8 large Yukon Gold potatoes
1 large sweet onion
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 Tbsp butter
salt and pepper
heavy duty foil
cooking spray

Wash the potatoes and cut into bite-size chunks. Do the same with the onion. Prepare a sheet of heavy duty foil, doubled, by spraying with cooking spray. Place potatoes and onion on the foil. Distribute chunks of butter over the vegetables. Add salt and pepper.
Gather the edges of the foil together and seal tightly. Place on grill 20-30 minutes prior to grilling meat.
Open the foil package carefully! I either pour the potatoes into a bowl or just transfer the entire foil package to a tray and serve out of the foil for a super casual meal.
Options: Add bacon crumbles or garlic cloves.

Parent Tip
For a picnic outdoors, have the kids make dinnerware sets for everyone. Use a Mason jar for each guest. Add a napkin, silverware, and a straw. Place one setting at each place at the table. Once dinner is served, use the jars as drinking glasses for lemonade, iced tea, or milk. (NOTE: Not for little ones as the jars are glass and can break!)
