Direct Heat Method:

1. Preheat your BBQ to medium-high heat (around 400°F/200°C).
2. Scrub and poke some holes in 1-2 large potatoes.
3. Rub with oil, salt, and pepper.
4. Place the potatoes directly on the grill grates.
5. Cook for 30-40 minutes, turning every 10-15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Indirect Heat Method:

1. Preheat your BBQ to medium heat (around 350°F/175°C).
2. Scrub and poke some holes in 1-2 large potatoes.
3. Rub with oil, salt, and pepper.
4. Place the potatoes on the grill grates, away from direct heat.
5. Cook for 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Wrapped in Foil Method:

1. Preheat your BBQ to medium heat (around 350°F/175°C).
2. Scrub and poke some holes in 1-2 large potatoes.
3. Rub with oil, salt, and pepper.
4. Wrap each potato in foil, making sure to seal the edges.
