Delicious Cedar Planked Spuds Recipe for a Flavorful Side Dish

Cedar Planked Spuds are a flavorful and unique twist on traditional baked potatoes. By cooking the potatoes on cedar planks, they absorb the smoky flavor and develop a crispy exterior while remaining fluffy on the inside. This recipe is perfect for a summer BBQ or outdoor gathering.

Ingredients

• 4 large russet potatoes
• 4 cedar planks (soaked in water for 2 hours)
• 4 tbsp olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Optional toppings: shredded cheese, sour cream, chives

Directions

1. Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.
2. Scrub the potatoes and slice them into 1/4 inch rounds.
3. Brush the potato slices with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
4. Place the soaked cedar planks on the grill and arrange the potato slices in a single layer on top of each plank.
5. Grill the potatoes for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until they are tender and lightly charred.
6. Serve the cedar planked spuds hot with your favorite toppings.
