    9/17/2006 This was delicious! Made them as posted. I did cut the recipe in 1/2, there's just two of us. I thought the potatoes might stick to the foil but that didn't happen. Made them with red potatoes and they not only tasted great but they also looked great. It's a keeper. Thanks for posting. Update: 6/30/2007 Made again, but this time with white potatoes. Still came out great! You really need to add the bacon and dill to get the true flavor!. Made it with Marvelous Mustard Ribs.

    I'm giving this three stars because I had mixed reviews during our BBQ last night. I have to admit, I forgot to add the bacon and I was out of dill. Next time I try this, I'll stir all the spices together with MELTED butter, then top the potatoes, as they didn't get a consistant flavor.

    These were a great alternative to mashed or baked potatoes. To save a few calories, I sprayed the foil with Pam rather than coating with butter. Next time, I think I will eliminate all butter, and mix the potatoes, onions, cheese, salt, pepper & paprika in a bowl before cooking to spread the flavor throughout . . . sprinkling them on top kept the flavor to the top layer only. I made these with French Oriental Salmon Grill (French Oriental Salmon Grill) and sauteed zucchini & mushrooms. Yummy!

    It doesn't get much easier than this. I just tossed the packet on the grill and forgot it for 40 minutes. When we put the meat on the grill I added cheese and bacon and moved the packet to the side. When the meat was done so were the potatoes. There were no leftovers. Next time I will make a much larger batch. They were very good. Easy and good. Still my favorite combination.
