Nif's Great Grilled Potatoes

- Ready In:
- 25mins
- Ingredients:
- 5
- Yields:
-
6 1/2 potatoes
- Serves:
- 4-6
ingredients
- 6 potatoes, medium to large
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
- 1⁄2 teaspoon seasoning salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
directions
- Half bake the potatoes in the microwave. Cut them lengthwise, making sure to cut them the way that will make them sit flat. Make criss-crossed cuts about 3/4 of the way in the flesh of the potato - don't cut through!
- Mix all other ingredients and drizzle over the potatoes, a couple of teaspoons at a time so that it soaks into the potato.
- Prepare a grill to medium heat and place potatoes on upper rack in BBQ. If you don't have an upper rack, you can turn the grill to low but watch so that the potatoes don't burn. You can also make little foil nests to place them in by wrinkling up some foil underneath each one.
- When you can see that the butter mixture has soaked in and the potatoes look fully cooked, turn them over to add grill marks - only a couple of minutes.

Quick and easy and we loved these potatoes. I used Paula Deen's 'house seasoning' (salt, pepper, garlic powder) on them and found that if you gently twist the potato after spooning on the butter, the cuts 'open up' and the butter drips right down into the crevices. We loved how crispy they got on the grill. Kept the house cool....did our entire dinner on the grill! Thanks for posting this recipe Nif :)

We thought that these were pretty good. I think next time I would use a bit more salt. They did not seem all that flavorful to me, but I am pregnant and perhaps my taste is a bit off. My husband loved them and said they seemed perfectly flavorful to him. We will make them again for sure. Thanks for posting the recipe.

I love great food and I particularly like trying cuisines new to me! Although I don't prepare as much food as I used to, creating in my kitchen is still one of my favourite things to do. Enjoy!
