My husband has been on a potato binge as of recently. I’m not complaining one bit, especially because it’s been fun experimenting with new recipes to keep things fresh and exciting in the kitchen. The other day he asked me how to BBQ potatoes so we came up with this, Loaded BBQ Potatoes.<\/h3>\n

We have all made potatoes in the oven but one of the many questions that people ask me is if you can BBQ potatoes?<\/p>\n

Can you BBQ Potatoes?<\/h3>\n

YES, you absolutely can BBQ potatoes, and they are delicious!\u00a0 You can do them whole like a baked potato or, you can dice up the way my dad used to make them all the time growing up.\u00a0 They were one of his specialities, along with seriously the most amazing Roasted Chicken<\/a> of all times. I need to get that recipe ASAP for you guys.<\/p>\n

Back when we lived in Tucson, we could really BBQ at any time of the year because well, winter doesn’t really exist there. So while these are basically perfect for summer, you can make them any time you’re heading out to grill. Dad used to smother some chopped potatoes with butter, paprika, salt and a little pepper and then wrap them up and throw them on the grill. It was heavenly.<\/p>\n

I wanted to add bacon and cheese, because they are 2 super important food groups that we can not ignore. So I did. And this is what happened. Loaded BBQ Potatoes.<\/p>\n

Basically here’s the plan. You’re going to chop up some gorgeous Yukon Gold potatoes into bite sized pieces. Then you’ll douse them with some olive oil, a bit of garlic salt and some cooked bacon. Toss everything together and then wrap up\u00a0individual\u00a0portions in aluminum foil and throw them on the grill. A few minutes later, you’ll add some shredded cheddar cheese and some chopped scallions and serve them up alongside a nice cold beer and call it a day.<\/p>\n

How to BBQ Potatoes in foil?<\/h3>\n

Prep potatoes accordingly and tear 4 large sheets of aluminum foil, about 16 inches long each. Divide the potato mixture amongst the 4 sheets of aluminum foil and fold the sides up on both ends so you create a securely wrapped parcel for the potatoes.\u00a0 You want to make sure that the potatoes are not stacked on top of each other so they cook evenly.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

What temp to BBQ potatoes?<\/h3>\n

When it comes to BBQ potatoes it’s best to approach it low and slow.\u00a0 \u00a0I like to aim for around 350-400 degrees and let them cook for about 20-25 min depending on how crispy you want them .\u00a0 If you fire up your grill to max temp and try to bbq them too fast, you are going to end up with burnt bottoms and under cooked tops.<\/p>\n

So here ya go,\u00a0Loaded BBQ Potatoes. I pinkie promise these sassy tots are going to be your new fav summer side dish. And if you’ve got some vegetarians coming over (we do!) I just leave out the bacon and call it a day! Win\/Win for everyone.<\/p>\n
