Ingredients
- 5 -6 medium potatoes
- 2 tablespoons of your favourite herb and garlic seasoning
- 1 -2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 -1 12 cup grated old cheddar cheese
- 12 cup precooked bacon bits
Method
- In a bowl, slice potatoes.
- Add seasoning, garlic powder, grated cheese and bacon pieces.
- Mix and transfer to greased tinfoil.
- Wrap and transfer to bbq grill on medium heat.
- Takes about 45 minutes to 1 hour to cook but depends on heat temperature of bbq.
- During cooking, turn a few times.
- I make this in a bowl and transfer to foil, but you can make right on the tinfoil and mix it on the foil.
- I use 'Pam' on the foil for easy release of potatoes.
- I double wrap foil in case one layer breaks open when cooking/turning.
- New red or white potatoes are great with skins on.
- You could easily add sliced onions; we don't because of family preference (husband hates them!
- ).
- You can easily add more or less cheese or bacon to suit your taste.
- I have also used grated marble cheese when I ran out of cheddar and it worked well.
- Any jar kind of dried herb and garlic seasoning works well (with the larger pieces of spices) but you can also use Mrs.
- Dash seasoning, seasoning salt, cajun spice to heat it up a little - I've tried all these and they all work well).
- I don't add butter to the potatoes in the foil and they are still plenty moist, but you could if you wanted to.
- Don't think that the spices are too much - they really seem to mellow with the potatoes during cooking.
- I know sometimes when I make it, it looks like a lot of spice but you don't really taste if (except cajun or seasoning salt).
- Watch you don't overcook or the cheese will burn and stick to the foil!
