Carefully transfer the Cheesy Potatoes to a serving platter and serve immediately alongside your favorite grilled entree.
For a smoky flavor, add a few wood chips to your grill.
Feel free to experiment with different cheeses, such as Monterey Jack, Pepper Jack, or a blend of your favorites.
Add a pinch of garlic powder or onion powder for an extra layer of flavor.
If you don't have a grill, you can bake the foil packet in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 40-45 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
For spicier potatoes, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or some chopped jalapeños.
Double wrapping the foil packet is highly recommended to prevent burning, especially if your grill runs hot.
