Sharing an accident that turned out great...

Today I put 5# of cut red potatoes in a disposable aluminum roasting pan with a third or half cup of olive oil and spices. This is the kind of thing I would normally do in a foil pouch, but I had too many potatoes.

I cooked then on the grill, indirect 350F, for about an hour. Then I turned the fire on below the pan, low heat but enough to get a sizzle. Twenty more minutes while the pork loin cooked over the main fire. Stirring a few times.

Turned out great! The hour cooked them through, then the sizzle browned them like fried potatoes. They were awesome!

How to *actually* grill potatoes: slice 'em thick, into planks that can be handled on the grill.  Parboil them for a few minutes, then drizzle with oil and seasoning, let cool, then grill.  Bath with chimichurri along the way.

I like that idea but I feel like the photo above is shopped or else there is some other fakery going on because that grate would not make those lines on the spuds.  I might try that recipe though.  Slice, parboil, EVOO + garlic & herbs, grill.  Nice.

So....fake news?

So....fake news?  

 

I know.  I should just focus on the food and put all other thoughts out of my mind.  It's a cool photo so I was focusing on it and then realized... Hey now!

Attempting these tonight.

They came out really nicely.  I boiled them for about 5 minutes.  Some of them were mildly crisp inside so I might go a little longer next time but everyone liked them.

How long did it take to paint those grill marks on?

[Big Nake]

About three minutes. Per side.
