How to Cook Potatoes on the Grill in Foil
Use two 15-inch pieces of aluminum foil (doubled-up) for every serving of potatoes. I like using nonstick foil, but if you do not have any, be certain to use enough olive oil to stop the potatoes from sticking.
Splash olive oil into the center of the foil. Carefully slice a few onions and place them on the top of the olive oil.
Cut russet potatoes in 1/4-inch pieces and arrange them on the top of the sausages. I use approximately half of one big russet potato in all of them and do not bother peeling it. Try for equal slices to ensure that they cook equally.
Sprinkle the potatoes with salt and pepper, then top with a piece of raw bacon.
Squeeze both edges of the foil together to form a package. Make certain that the lid is shut so that steam can’t escape.
Place the packets on a grill at medium heat and cook for 15-20 minutes. To test for doneness, open the packs and probe the potato with a fork.
