"Dirty" Potatoes

These "Dirty" Potatoes go great with my “Dirty” Grilled Chicken or my Beer Baked & Grilled BBQ Ribs. I came up with the recipe after making "hobo" dinners for my kids where you put hamburger, chopped up onions & potatoes in tin foil and throw it on the grill. After making them on the grill and burning them many times, I found it easier to make them in a pan in the oven.

Ingredients:
5 Pounds of Potatoes
1 to 2 large Onions
1 lb of Bacon
1 (5 to 8 ounces) package of shredded or grated Parmesan Cheese
Salt & Pepper

You will also need a big lasagna/cake pan/roaster that will hold the 5 lbs of potatoes cut into pieces.

Directions:
Cut bacon strips in ½ inch pieces and fry up.
Cut Onion(s) into small pieces.
Discard excess bacon grease and set aside.
Peel and cut potatoes into approximately ½ inch squares.
Cut Onion(s) into small pieces.
In pan, mix potatoes, onions, bacon pieces & parmesan cheese.
Salt & Pepper to taste.

Bake for 60 minutes, mixing them up about every 20 minutes. When they are done - put them under the broiler set at low to brown the top. You need to watch them as they can burn easily. I usually mix them up some and brown them again.

Bake at: 350 degrees
Time: 60 Minutes
Serves: 8
