Ingredients

2 lbs Golden Potatoes
1 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
¼ cup Olive Oil divided
2 tbsp Course Grain Mustard
¼ tsp Salt
¼ tsp Black Pepper
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Garnish: 2 tbsp Chopped Green Onion

Instructions

Preheat Your Gas Grill: Turn on your gas grill and heat it up until temperature stays around 350-400 degrees.
Prepare Your Potatoes: Wash golden potatoes and slice into thin ¼” inch rounds. This can be done using a sharp knife or a mandolin. Toss with 2 tbsp olive or avocado oil.
Prepare Marinade: In a large bowl, whisk together remaining olive oil, apple cider vinegar, coarse grain mustard, salt, pepper, garlic powder until combined.
Grill Potatoes: Place potatoes on a preheated grill and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side. Make sure you are monitoring the temperature to make sure the slices do not burn. Remove once potato rounds are cooked through the center.
Serve: Toss in prepared marinade. Garnish with chopped green onion and serve warm. For an extra boost of flavor, top with some crumbled cooked bacon!

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.
