Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 medium russet potatoes or similar
  • 2 tablespoons salt divided

For the butter mixture:

  • 1/2 cup salted butter softened
  • 1/4 cup chives chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Instructions

  • Use a sharp knife to cut each potato into thin slices, without cutting all the way through the potato at the bottom. Sprinkle each potato with salt, reserving 1/2 teaspoon on salt for the butter mixture.
  • Place each potato inside a square of tinfoil large enough to wrap around the entire potato.
  • Mix the reserved salt, butter, chives, and pepper together in a bowl until well combined. Spoon a little bit of the butter mixture between each slice of the potatoes.
  • Seal the potatoes in the foil.
  • Heat the grill to medium high heat (about 350° F) on one side, so there is an area of indirect heat where you can place the potatoes. Cook for 45 minutes, rotating once or twice. Open a packet and pierce the potato to check for doneness. When done, remove the potatoes from the foil and place them directly on the grill. Turn up the heat to 400° F and rotate the potatoes frequently to crisp the exterior. Remove when golden.

Notes

  • To help slice the potatoes without going all the way through, place chopsticks on either end of the potato and slice through until you reach the chopstick.
