How to Grill Potatoes in Foil
Start by preheating an outdoor grill. Cut out or tear a large foil square to cover each potato. Slather the square with butter. Sprinkle salt, pepper, garlic, and Italian seasoning evenly over the foil.
Roll each potato in foil before puncturing the wrapping with a fork or knife. Grill for about one hour, or until soft.
What to Serve With Grilled Potatoes
Summertime favorites like sloppy joes or pasta salad pair perfectly with fluffy grilled potatoes. Add cold fried chicken for a deliciously easy picnic.
How to Store Grilled Potatoes
Refrigerate cooked potatoes for up to five days in an airtight container or resealable plastic bag. Store within 2 hours of cooking for best results.
Grilled (or baked) potatoes will last up to six months in the freezer. Be sure to wrap them completely in aluminum foil or plastic before placing them inside a heavy-duty bag. Reheat potatoes in a 425 degrees F oven until thoroughly warmed.

"This was a really easy and great way to make potatoes," shares Tovah1013. "Easy to adjust with other seasonings too. Next time I will poke more holes in the potatoes so that the butter and seasonings seep into them more."
