Baked Potatoes on the Grill Recipe
Learn how to make a baked potato on the grill with this super easy recipe! The perfect side dish for any grilled dinner!
Ingredients
- 4 russet potatoes
- extra virgin olive oil
- kosher salt and ground black pepper
- for serving: sour cream, butter, chives, and seasoned salt
Instructions
- Prep Grill: Preheat grill to a medium-high heat (400-450℉).
- Prep Potatoes: Wash 4 russet potatoes, poke a few holes in each one with a fork, drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, and sprinkle with kosher salt and ground black pepper. Double wrap each potato individually in aluminum foil.
- Grill: Place directly on the grill grates and close the grill lid. Let cook for approx. 45-60 minutes (or until internal temp reaches 210℉), but total cook time will depend upon the size/width of your potatoes.
- Serve: Remove from grill and serve with your favorite baked potato toppings to create an ultimate loaded baked potato!
Notes
- Pre-Cook: you *can* precook these in the microwave (poke with fork, microwave for about 4 minutes on HIGH wrapped in a damp paper towel) before following the directions above to shorten the cook time a little bit.
- Large Potatoes: if you have larger russet potatoes then I would definitely recommend microwaving beforehand to shorten the total cook time.
- Storage: any leftover potatoes can be taken out of the foil and stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. Simply reheat in the microwave.
