Baked Potatoes on the Grill Recipe
Grilling bakes the potatoes in their jackets. Make sure that you pierce each potato before grilling them so they don't explode while they are on the grill.
Equipment

- 4 large russet potatoes
- 2 tbsp salted butter, melted
- Salt and Pepper
Instructions
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (375 to 450 degrees).

- Cook 20 to 30 minutes more depending on the size, until tender when pierced with a paring knife
