Grilled Cheesey Potatoes

By Gary Sundy

Sundy · Sides: Potatoes, Rice and Grains

Ingredients

  • 4 or 5 (or even 6) red skin potatoes
  • 1 or 2 onions (vidalias are nice, but a yellow onion will do)
  • Salt & pepper (don't be afraid)
  • Several pats of butter
  • Shredded cheddar cheese

Method

  1. Wash potatoes, remove eyes and cut into large sections (cut in 1/2, cut 1/2 in 1/2 and then quarter).
  2. Wash onion(s) and remove outer skin, cut into large section then separate layers.
  3. Add salt & pepper (don't be afraid).
  4. Add several pats of butter.
  5. Criss-cross two 18–24 inch pieces of aluminum foil. Fold carefully to contain potatoes and seal.
  6. Bake on top of grill for 40–45 minutes, flipping frequently.
  7. Remove carefully (it's hot). Open foil and add shredded cheddar cheese.
  8. Reseal to allow cheese to melt.
  9. Transfer to a bowl and serve.
