2 tsp Holy Smokers Holy Heifer Rub (or to taste)
-
Heavy-duty aluminum foil
Cook: Nathan of Holy Smokers Rub Co.
Instructions
-
Preheat the Grill:
Set your grill to 350–400°F for 2-zone cooking (direct and indirect heat zones). -
Prep the Potatoes:
Rinse and scrub potatoes to remove any dirt.
Lay out 4 sheets of 18" heavy-duty aluminum foil (or double-layer standard foil).
Place 1 potato in the center of each foil sheet.
Drizzle with olive oil and season generously with Holy Heifer Rub.
Wrap tightly in foil. Repeat with all potatoes. -
Indirect Grill Cook:
Place the foil-wrapped potatoes on the indirect heat side of the grill.
Close the lid and grill for 60 minutes, rotating the potatoes at the 30-minute mark for even cooking. -
Finish Over Direct Heat:
Carefully remove potatoes from foil using tongs or heat-resistant gloves.
Place them directly over the hot zone of the grill.
Grill for 1–2 minutes per side (4–5 minutes total) to crisp up the skins. -
Serve:
Remove from the grill and place on a serving platter.
Slice open, fluff with a fork, and serve hot with butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon—or your favorite toppings.
Add an extra sprinkle of Holy Heifer Rub for the perfect finish.
Pro Tip:
Internal temp for a perfect baked potato is 210°F—aim for 205–215°F for fluffy perfection.
