Grilled Potatoes with BBQ Sauce, Rosemary and Bacon -George Foreman Grill or Outdoors

I found this recipe on the Sweet Baby Ray's site and just knew it would be different and fun! Although I didn't exactly follow instructions because I used what I had on hand and didn't have any bacon??? But I think there's a lot of wiggle room here. I chose to use my George Foreman Grill and it did a pretty good job with the potatoes! The BBQ sauce and rosemary worked well together and of course bacon makes everything better... Note to self: pick some up. If you're looking for a side dish with a twist folks, I think you'll like these Grilled Potatoes with BBQ Sauce, Rosemary and Bacon.

Tip: My experience with the George and other contact grills has been that it's the upper plate that creates the grill marks. The lower plate gets wet from the juices and kind of steams more than sears. 

This recipe was written up for baby potatoes to be skewered and grilled. My red potatoes were bigger. I didn't make kabobs and just tossed the cubed potatoes onto the George-yea, you don't want to do that. Next time I would slice them about 1/2" thick and grill the slices. They'd be easier to corral and turn. A grill pan on an outdoor grill would work really well.
