Easy and Savory Grilled Campfire Potatoes in a Foil Packet

Easy and Savory Grilled Campfire Potatoes in a Foil Packet. There’s just something wonderful about campfire food. One of my favorites has always been the campfire foil packets of potatoes tender and cheesy – hot off of the grill.

The kids love getting their own individual potato packets. This gets me excited to pull up to a campsite with them, just like we used to as kids. My mom was the camp chef. Cooking over a fire, on cast iron skillets just makes everything taste better. Doesn’t it?  Oh my goodness…the morning pancakes were the best!

    Can you put these in the oven?

      Hi Terri. You can absolutely bake these in the oven. Set your temperature to 375 degrees and bake for 45-50 minutes (or until potatoes are tender and you can pierce them easily with a fork).
