Grilled Twice Baked Potatoes Food

GRILLED TWICE BAKED POTATOES

Steps:

• Set your grill for indirect heating. Heat to 400 degrees F. Once you have reached 400 degrees F, close the lid and wait 15 minutes so the temperature is even throughout the whole grill.
• Wash the potatoes. Pat dry with a paper towel and place them on a plate.
• With a fork, poke each potato 3 to 4 times. Coat them with olive oil then sprinkle salt and onion powder to coat each potato.
• Place the potatoes directly on the preheated grill.
• Close the grill and cook for 75 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 205 degrees F. Depending on the size of the potatoes your time may vary this is why I rely on internal temperature. Also, when they are cooked, the skin will feel crispy and when pushing on it slightly it feels tender.
• Take them off the grill and let them cool off.
• Once the potatoes are cool enough to touch, slice them, length-wise.
• Once you have cut them, with a spoon, scoop the flesh out into a mixing bowl (make sure to leave a little flesh still on the skins). Add in the salt, onion powder, pepper, chicken broth and the melted butter.
• Mix with a hand mixer until combined. The texture won't be smooth yet.
• Add the sour cream, bacon bits, and 1 cup of shredded cheese
• Mix with the hand mixer until all ingredients are combined.
• With a spoon, scoop some of the potato mixture back into the potato skins.
• Top each potato with some additional shredded cheese and bacon bits.
• Place your stuffed potatoes on a half cookie sheet (or a disposable aluminum pan) and place directly on the grill.
• Cook for 20 minutes or until the cheese is nice and melted.
• Remove from grill and enjoy!

TWICE-BAKED POTATOES WITH GOAT'S CHEESE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Prick each potato a few times with a fork. Place in the oven and cook for 1 hr. Remove from the oven and, using a tea towel to protect your hands, cut them in half lengthwise. Use a spoon and scoop out the flesh, leaving behind enough skin and flesh to form a shell.
• Heat the grill. Place the potato halves, cut side up, onto a baking tray. Brush with a little melted butter then grill for 3-5 mins until starting to crisp. Meanwhile mash the potato flesh with 100g of goat's cheese, any leftover butter and cream, then season well. Spoon a little mash back into each potato shell, then top with a slice of goat's cheese. Place under the grill and cook for 5 mins until golden.

WEBER'S TWICE-GRILLED POTATOES WITH GRUYERE CHEESE AND DIJON

Steps:

• Brush or spray the potato halves with vegetable oil. Grill over Direct Medium heat until tender when pierced with a fork, 30 to 35 minutes, turning three or four times during grilling time. Remove from the grill and allow to cool slightly.
• When cool enough to handle, use a small sharp knife to cut around the cut side of the potato to within 1/4 inch of the skin. Using a teaspoon or melon baller, scoop out the interior of the potato, leaving a 1/4-inch-thick shell attached to the skin. Place the potato pulp in a large bowl. Set the potato shells aside while preparing the stuffing.
• TO MAKE THE STUFFING:.
• Using a potato masher or pastry blender, mash the potato pulp. Add the sour cream and milk and mix well. Stir in the ham and half of the cheese. Add the mustard and season with salt and pepper. Mix well. Adjust the seasoning with more mustard, if desired. Divide the stuffing evenly among the skins so the stuffing mounds slightly. Sprinkle the remaining cheese over the stuffing.
• Grill the stuffed potatoes over Direct Medium heat until the cheese is melted and the potatoes are heated through, about 10 minutes. Serve immediately.
• Note: Try a Cheddar & Bacon version, or Blue Cheese and Chives.
