Grilled Potatoes

Ingredients

4-6 potatoes (you can use any kind, try different
ones for variety)
1 large onion (I use red onions, but again it's up to you
Add seasonings to taste I use:
seasoned salt
pepper
garlic powder
Cajun seasoning
Usually I'll add a bit of everything- we really like to spice things up- but those are the ones you can't do without butter

Directions

Slice potatoes into even sized rounds, fairly thin, but not paper thin. Slice onion into rings season to taste Arrange on a piece of aluminum foil put several large chunks of butter on top fold foil over to make a pocket and fold edges to seal and put on grill. It doesn't take very long at all for them to cook about 5-10 minutes.
