Potatoes are boring no more! Wrapped in bacon and then sprinkled with pork rub, they are so good you might have to make a double batch.
When picking the potatoes think small enough to cook through on a grill. Also, consider getting new potatoes you don’t need to worry about peeling them. If you can only get larger potatoes consider pre-boiling before placing them on the grill.
You can serve these potatoes alongside your favorite meals from the grill, such as chicken, steak, fish, or hamburgers as a side dish. They can also be served as finger food or an appetizer.
Pick small new potatoes so that they cook quickly and do not need to be peeled.
Grill the potatoes, turning frequently, so that the bacon and potatoes cook at the same rate.
Grilled bacon-wrapped potatoes make a great appetizer or side dish.
These bacon-wrapped potatoes only use a few ingredients but are packed with flavor.
