Campfire Grilled Loaded Baked Potatoes in a tinfoil topped with onion, cheese, sour cream, salt and pepper

This is most likely my favorite tinfoil dinner that I made this year camping. While I love the others, such as my Tex Mex White Bean Packets and my chili coconut scallops,  loaded baked potatoes are a dish that’s near and dear to my heart.

It’s also easy, clean and you can eat it in the packet, if you are so inclined.

I was inclined.

No dishes to wash? Oh, yes please!

I mean, look at this. Who needs a plate when the food looks this darn tasty?

You can adjust the recipe accordingly, to fit as many people as you like. I made four packets, as we are a family of four, but it’s easy to make one per person for as many people as you like.

I love love love the no clean up. You wad the tinfoil and throw it in the garbage. Done. Easy peasy camping meal.

I like easy peasy. I’m lazy. Dishes and I just don’t get along.

Happy cooking everyone!

Love,

Karlynn

Ingredients 

  • cooking spray
  • 4 inches large potatoes cut into small one pieces
  • 2 teaspoons seasoning salt 1/4 tsp per packet
  • 4 tablespoons butter
  • 8 slices of lightly cooked bacon chopped
  • 8 tablespoons chopped green onion
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Spray the inside of four large sheets of tinfoil.
  • Divide the potatoes, butter and bacon into 4 and place in the middle of each sheet, sprinkle the seasoning salt over the top; fold the tinfoil to enclose.
  • Cook on the grill of a campfire, BBQ or a 400 degree oven until the potatoes are tender, approximately 25 minutes. Shake and turn the tinfoil packet every few minutes to avoid burning.
  • Remove the packet from the heat and open carefully.
  • Portion out the potatoes onto plates OR leave them into the packages, like we do. No dishes!
  • Top with the (divided into 4) onion, cheese, sour cream and salt/pepper.
