🥔Key Ingredient Notes & Substitutions

  • Golden Potatoes – These are my absolute favorite potatoes because they are naturally buttery and soft on the inside. This makes them a great potato to grill because they cook pretty quickly.
  • Coarse Grain Mustard – This is what makes the potato salad dressing perfect for potatoes without having too much of a mustard flavor. try this one.
  • Apple Cider Vinegar – Adds a great tang to the dressing that is slightly sweet.
  • Olive or Avocado Oil – Helps bring together the vinaigrette so it gets evenly coated with the dressing
  • Chopped Green Onion – A great garnish for this dish that also adds a nice pop of fresh color. You can also use thinly sliced red onion for a stronger onion flavor.
  • Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder – A must to season up this unique side dish.

1️⃣ Preheat Your Gas Grill: Turn on your gas grill and heat it up until temperature stays around 350-400 degrees.

Notes

 
  • No foil packets: Grilled potatoes taste best when placed right on the grill without any barrier. Foil is best used when baking a full potato on the grill. You could also use a grill pan to make this recipe.
  • Soaking potatoes: Since these potatoes are cut into thin rounds, they do not need to be soaked before they are tossed in oil and placed on your preheated grill. Soaking potatoes in water removes some of the starch which is best when cooking potatoes in an oven where there is more even and dry heat.
  • Best grilling potatoes: I believe that the best potatoes for grilling are Yukon gold potatoes because of how naturally buttery and soft they are. They cook pretty quickly on the grill and have a wonderful flavor. You could also use red potatoes as an alternative.
