Ingredients
  

For the Potatoes
  • 4 medium Yukon Gold Potatoes Russet potatoes can be a substitute if peeled.

  • 1 teaspoon Kosher Salt Sea salt is a suitable substitution.
For the Seasonings
  • 1/2 teaspoon Freshly Cracked Black Pepper White pepper provides a milder taste.
  • 3 cloves Minced Garlic Fresh is best, but garlic powder works in a pinch.
  • 1 medium Diced White Onion Yellow or red onions can diversify the flavor profile.
For Cooking
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Vegetable oil works as another option.

Equipment

  • Aluminum foil
  • tongs

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Buttery Grilled Potatoes
  1. Begin by scrubbing and cleaning the Yukon gold potatoes thoroughly. Cut the potatoes into ¼ inch thick rounds and set aside.
  2. Lay out two 18x12 inch pieces of heavy-duty aluminum foil. Spread cold butter evenly on each piece of foil.
  3. Place half of the sliced potatoes on the first buttered foil. Season with half of the kosher salt and black pepper, garlic, and onion. Add pats of butter on top.
  4. Layer the remaining potato slices on top. Drizzle with olive oil and create a tight seal around the layered potatoes.
  5. Preheat your grill to medium heat and place the foil packets on the grill. Cook for 15-20 minutes on one side, flip, and cook for another 10-15 minutes.
  6. Remove the packets from the grill and allow to cool. Open carefully and sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.
