I have been making these for years, it's a family favorite! all ingredients are wrapped in a foil pouch then grilled for about 30-40 minutes, add in some cooked cubed ham for a complete meal, you could even make the packets well in advance then refrigerate until ready to grill Make certain to use only large heavy-duty foil for this and spray the inside of the foil generously!

SERVES 6 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

6 large potatoes (sliced 1/4-inch thick)
2 medium onions, chopped
1/3 cup grated parmesan cheese
1 cup grated cheddar cheese, shredded
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
12 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled (I just use a 1-pound package of bacon)
6 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces (use 3 tablespoons for each packet)
2 teaspoons seasoning salt
black pepper
shredded cheese

Directions

1
Divide the sliced potatoes and onions equally between two pieces (about 18-inches each) heavy-duty foil, that has been sprayed liberally with cooking spray.
2
Sprinkle with seasoning salt, pepper and garlic powder; tossing lightly with hands to coat with seasonings.
3
In a bowl combine grated cheddar mozzarella and Parmesan cheese; divide and sprinkle over the potatoes and onions.
4
Divide/top with bacon and butter cubes.
5
Bring opposite ends of the foil together over filling and fold down several times.
6
Fold unsealed ends toward filling and crimp tightly (making a sealed packet, you may poke a small hole on top of the packet to let steam escape).
7
At this point to you may refrigerate for a few hours until ready to grill.
8
Place on grill over medium heat for about 35-40 minutes or until potatoes are fork-tender.
9
Remove from grill, carefully open the packets (be careful these packets have lots of steam inside, so open with care!) and sprinkle with more grated cheese.
10
Delicious!

I just made this recipe this weekend over an open fire. It was a huge hit. If you cook it over an open fire watch the flames carefully- try to keep the fire low. I would make it with ham next time although the bacon was excellent. Thanks so much for another great recipe!

Great recipe. Didn't change a thing in the ingredients and it came out awesome. Instead of foil wrapping, I use 2 foil containers clipped together (top & bottom, with office foldback clips). I find them handier to flip during cooking and easier to check when packets are fully cooked.

Kitz these are wonderful, even though I kinda burned them. I was busy doing too many things at once. I would suggest that you turn these side to side every 5-10 minutes to keep them from burning. I cooked mine on medium and put the middle burner on low, but they still got kinda toasted. Even so, wonder flavor. Thanks Kitz

Kitten, these potatoes were so good and very easy to prepare. Since it was just my husband and I eating at home last night, I cut the recipe in half and made each packet to suit our different tastes. I made my packet exactly as the recipe was written and it made the perfect side dish for grilled London broil. All the flavors blended together very nicely. In my husband's packet, I omitted the parmesan and onions since he doesn't really like either of these. When it gets really hot, this will be a great recipe to use as I won't have to heat up the kitchen preparing a side dish to serve with grilled meats. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
