What can I add to these reviews, except the same type of review!! These were an awesome side dish with you sugared sirloin steak recipe!! I cooked them earlier in the day and then sliced them in half and added the oil and seasoning (I used seasoned salt and pepper), then about an hour before adding them to the grill, I skewered them and let them get to room temperature before grilling! Worked out perfectly!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for your cook-a-thon in memory of your DH!!

Fantastic side dish! I used baby reds that were fresh from the market. The only slight change was to use a pepper garlic grinder in place of the salt/pepper. Great to have on the side of the grill with the chicken on the other! Easy no fuss side dish. Thanks Sharon. Made based on Nimzie's review in the I Recommend tag game.

Very simple & good recipe! I love sides that can be made on the grill while grilling other things, too hard to run back & forth in the kitchen otherwise. Had them with grilled porkchops for tonights dinner. I had to cook mine about 10 minutes longer also. I bought fresh baby red potatoes while at the store today for this recipe. Will make plenty of times this summer!
