Grilled Potato Side Dish
Foil packet grilled potatoes with bacon, red potatoes, carrots, onion, green pepper, butter, and seasoned salt.
Ingredients
- 4 pieces bacon cut in half
- 6 to 8 red potatoes washed and sliced
- 8 to 10 baby carrots diced
- 1/4 onion diced
- 1 green pepper diced
- 3 tablespoons butter about 4 slices
- 2 teaspoons seasoned salt
Instructions
- Lay a large piece of heavy-duty foil on the countertop.
- Spray foil with cooking spray.
- Lay out 4 half-strips of bacon in the center of the foil.
- Top with half of the potatoes, then sprinkle with half of the carrots, onion, and green pepper.
- Lay two pats of butter on top and sprinkle with 1 teaspoon seasoned salt.
- Repeat layers with remaining potatoes, vegetables, butter, and seasoned salt.
- Fold all ends of foil over tightly so the potatoes can steam inside the packet.
- Grill on a preheated grill for 35 to 45 minutes, until potatoes are tender.
- Alternatively, bake in a 350°F oven for about 45 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
Notes
Use heavy-duty foil and seal the packet tightly so the potatoes steam instead of drying out. Slice potatoes evenly so they cook at the same rate. Do not make oversized packets; add more packets for a larger crowd. Leftovers keep refrigerated for 3 to 4 days and reheat well in a skillet with a little butter.
