Ingredients

4 medium potatoes, cut into 1-inch/2.5 cm chunks
1/2 tsp (2 mL) salt
2 tbsp (30 mL) butter or margarine
1 cup (250 mL) shredded Cheddar cheese
2 tbsp (30 mL) bacon bits or crumbles
2 medium green onions, sliced (2 tbsp/30 mL)

Steps

1

Heat gas or charcoal grill. Cut 30x18-inch piece of heavy-duty foil. Place potato chunks on foil; sprinkle with salt. Cut butter into small pieces; sprinkle over potatoes. Sprinkle with cheese and bacon bits.
2

Bring up 2 sides of foil over potatoes so edges meet. Seal edges, making tight 1/2-inch fold; fold again, allowing space for heat circulation and expansion. Fold other sides to seal. Pierce top of foil once or twice with fork to vent steam.
3

Place foil packet, seam side up, on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook 45 to 60 minutes or until potatoes are tender. Carefully fold back foil. Sprinkle onions over potato mixture.
