Potatos on the Egg

Unknown · August 2007

I heard that you can cook potatos on the egg with a nail driven through the center to speed up cooking time. Does anyone know what kind of nails to use and should the taters be foiled? Indirect or Direct? Thanks for the help!

Egger,
I fast-bake potatoes by cutting them in half, smearing the cut surfaces with oil, and putting them on cut-side up while the Egg heats up (lid down). At some point the cut surfaces need to be turned down if you want them crusty. Leave them on while you cook your meat and while the meat is resting for 10 minutes or so (lid down). Remove and treat each half like half a baked potato.

Celtic Wolf, about how long (average time), does it take for a medium size potato to cook with the nail?

Egger,
A great way we have found for egging potatoes is to slice up the raw potato and place it on a piece of heavy duty foil along with some veggies, a little salt and pepper, a little butter and a sprinkle of water. Seal up the foil and place it on the grill along side the meat. It is done in 20 minutes and there you have your spuds and veggies all done on the egg. They have a wonderful flavor. Bucky

Bob,[p] I never really timed potatoes. As silly as this sounds I just know they are done. Anytime I time something I burn it, so I just stopped timing it.

Egger,
try using junky old butter knives.... i stab the knife part in the tater.... the handle has a large amount of mass that quickly transfers alot of heat... they're easier to clean than nails too..(stainless)
