Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • Salt and pepper - to taste
  • 1 large white potato peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
  • 1 large yam peeled and sliced 1/4 inch thick
  • 4 pieces approximately 12 x 12 inches heavy duty foil
  • 2 tablespoons butter - cut into small cubes + extra for greasing

Instructions

  • Prepare your campfire or grill for cooking.
  • Mix the spices.
  • Peel and cut the potatoes. 
  • Place potatoes in bowl and then toss with the spice mixture.
  • Prepare the foil. Cut 4 pieces of heavy duty foil to size ... If you don’t have heavy duty foil, just use two layers of the regular stuff. Grease foil with butter. 
  • Divide the spiced potatoes into equal portions and place them in the center of each piece of foil. 
  • Divide the butter cubes evenly amongst the foil packets by placing around the potatoes. 
  • Fold the foil packets closed and set aside until ready to cook.
  • Cook the potatoes. Place foil packets on grate over medium heat and turn them every 5-10 minutes until the potatoes are tender ... total cooking time should be about 20-30 minutes.
  • Serve warm.

Notes

Camp cooking tip: A great thing about these potatoes is that you can combine the ingredients, make the packets then set them aside until you are ready to cook them.  Waaaaay beyond that … you know how much we all love avoiding dish-panned hands with foil throw-away dishes!
