How to Make Bbq Potatoes Pepper Packets

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat.
  2. In a large bowl, combine 1.5 lbs small red potatoes (halved or quartered if large), 1 bell pepper (any color, chopped), 1/2 cup chopped onion, 1 jalapeño pepper (seeded and minced, optional), 1/4 cup BBQ sauce, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
  3. Divide the potato mixture evenly among six large sheets of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  4. Bring up the sides of the foil to create individual packets, sealing tightly to prevent leaks.
  5. Place the packets on the preheated grill. Cook for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and slightly charred, flipping halfway through.
  6. Carefully remove the packets from the grill and let rest for 5 minutes before opening and serving. Enjoy!

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
