Instructions
- Cut the potatoes into thin slices.
Layer the potatoes on a dish or platter that you can use to transfer to the grill.- Get your grill heated up. Once hot, heat a cast iron pan or plancha on the grill. Aiming for a medium high heat. We want the butter to melt, but not burn.

Season with a few pinches of salt and half of the thyme and top each layered potato group with additional butter.
Grill for 20 minutes, then flip the potatoes over. The potatoes should be browned and crispy. If the come apart use a spatula and tongs to push back together.- Season the potatoes with a few pinches of salt and the remaining thyme leaves. Top with a few thin slices of butter. Also a dd 2-3 tablespoons of butter to the cast iron.
- Grill for 20 minutes.
- If the pan dries up add more butter periodically to keep a layer of melted butter in the pan.
After a total cooking time of 40 minutes the potatoes should be cooked to perfection, with a crispy outside and buttery interior.
Serve with your favorite main dish.
Notes
There will be variability in cooking times based on how hot your grill is. We are aiming for a dark brown crispy exterior, but if the heat is too high the potatoes may burn so take care to manage the heat. Time and thyme are your friends in making this delicious dish.
