Bacon Ranch Foil Packet Potatoes





One of my favorite things (of, admittedly, many) to cook on the grill is potatoes in a foil packet. The packets themselves are so easy to put together, and the flavor of the end product really is amazing. I especially love it when the potatoes at the bottom – the ones closest to the grill flame – get a little charred and stick to the foil. I love crispy potatoes, so my husband is always kind enough to let me have the ones in his packet, too. He’s a pretty good guy, that one.
