Easy Grill Potatoes

Summer is here, let the grilling commence! Not only does it seem that everything tastes better coming from the grill, it is also a great way to keep your home cooler reducing the need for air conditioning. Don't be fooled either by the commercials showing steak, burgers, and hotdogs being grilled. The grill is much more versatile than that, but we will start with an easy and delicious grilled potato recipe.


Grilled Potatoes

What you'll need:
Potatoes (typically 1/person)
Onions (1/3 ratio with potatoes)
Garlic (1 Clove/Cup Potatoes)
Butter/Margarine (1 Tbsp/Cup Potatoes)
Lawry's Seasoning Salt (To Taste-Try not to overdo the salt)
Tin Foil
Cutting Board
Knife
Grill
Hearty Appetite (or you could always have leftovers)



Begin by chopping then onions and potatoes to bite size pieces



Continue by laying out tin foil. Cut a piece long enough to hold everything you've cut up without bursting or create a few tinfoil packages. Then put your onions and potatoes in the tin foil.


Evenly space your tablespoons of butter/margarine and garlic cloves. Lightly sprinkled the top with Lawry's Seasoning Salt.

Continue by placing tinfoil package on the grill over medium heat for ~20-30 minutes. Carefully remove from grill and enjoy! Goes great with any meal. We had our with grilled pork chops and a salad and the next day with grill ham roast.
