Cook Time: | 45 min |
Preparation
1. Preheat Memphis Grill to 375 degrees F.
2. Using a wooden spoon as a cradle, place each potato in the spoon and make several parallel slits into each potato, making sure not to slice completely through. HINT: The thinner, the better! And use a very sharp knife!
3. Insert a little garlic and a chunk of butter between the slices.
4. Drizzle olive oil over the top of the sliced potatoes and sprinkle salt and pepper to taste.
5. Place potatoes in a pan if you want to catch the dripping and baste during cooking.
6. In 45 minutes they're done!
