How to Make Easy Campfire Potatoes

  1. Before leaving for your camping trip or grilling session, combine olive oil, salt, pepper, chopped rosemary, and minced garlic in a large ziploc bag.
  2. At your campsite, grill, or in your kitchen, preheat your grill or oven to medium-high heat (approximately 375°F/190°C).
  3. If using larger potatoes, cut them into 1-inch pieces to ensure even cooking. Smaller potatoes can be left whole.
  4. Add the potatoes to the ziploc bag with the seasonings. Seal the bag tightly and shake vigorously to coat the potatoes evenly.
  5. Place the ziploc bag (carefully!) on the preheated grill, ensuring the bag is not directly over a high-heat flame. Alternatively, spread the potatoes on a baking sheet and place in a preheated oven.
  6. Grill or bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the potatoes are easily pierced with a fork and tender throughout. Check and shake the bag halfway through to ensure even cooking if grilling.
  7. Carefully remove the potatoes from the grill or oven. Open the bag and serve immediately. Enjoy!
