Seasonings

Garlic powder
Other seasoning
Instructions
Preheat the grill to medium-high, about 400° F.
Slice or dice the potatoes to the preferred size and place in a medium bowl. Toss with olive oil and season with kosher salt and other seasonings to taste. Stir to ensure complete coverage.
To Grill in a Skillet or Grill Basket
Place a 12" cast-iron skillet or grill basket on the grill to preheat then transfer the potatoes to the skillet/basket.
Grill over direct heat for 20 minutes or so, being sure to stir the potatoes to brown them on all sides. Then move to the indirect side for about 10 more minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and cooked through.
To Grill in Foil Packets
Create a packet with two pieces of heavy-duty foil. Place the potatoes on one piece of foil and place the other piece on top. Seal the edges and poke a few holes to allow the steam to escape.
Grill over direct heat for about 20 minutes. Take off the top foil to stir occasionally if you want the potatoes to brown. Then move to the indirect side for about 10 more minutes, or until the potatoes are golden and cooked through.
To Finish
Finish with your favorite toppings such as fresh herbs (thyme, chives or rosemary).
Notes
Can move the potatoes on and off the direct heat to accommodate your other menu items.
