Note: This recipe was developed using the Char-Broil Big Easy Oil-Less Fryer. If you are cooking using the Char-Broil Smoker-Roaster Grill you should cook with the lid open and the temperature set to High. You might also need to adjust the cooking time.
I absolutely love roasted baby potatoes. They taste almost like whipped butter, with a fantastic creamy insides. But my favorite part is that crispy skin that pops when you bite into it. The Char-Broil Big Easy cooks up baby potatoes perfectly, and in no time at all. No pre-boiling or baking is required. Just toss them with some oil, salt and pepper and garlic and into the cooker they go!
Bunk Bed Baskets Make Life Easier
Although you can cook a few baby potatoes on the rack that comes with the Char-Broil Big Easy, you really want to add a bunk bed basket (or two) so you can cook more at once. If you prefer a potato with a little bit of spicy kick to it try my Fire-Eater potatoes also made on the Big Easy.
If by chance I have leftover potatoes, they’re great for breakfast. I like to chop them up then add them to a hot skillet with a little oil. I dust them with a little paprika and cayenne and let them get good and golden brown, with a little crunch on the edges. I flip them just once, season them again, and make sure the other side also gets golden brown crunchy yummy.
To make these potatoes on the Char-Broil Big Easy I used a bunk bed basket. It lets me double or even triple the amount of cooking space I have.
