Answer 1

Something potato-ish.... chippage, frozen fries in the oven, baked taters on the grill, or tater salad! We are having homemade pizza tonight!

Answer 2

GRILLED CORN ON THE COB

6 ears of fresh corn (shucked and cleaned)
1/4 c. melted butter
Salt and pepper
Seasoned salt, optional
Barbecue seasoning, optional

Place corn on a very large piece of aluminum foil. Pour melted butter evenly over corn. Sprinkle with salt and pepper (also seasoned salt or barbeque seasoning if desired). Fold foil carefully to be sure it is sealed. Place on grill. Cook for 30 minutes. Turn often.

GRILLED FOIL ROAST VEGETABLES

Cauliflower
Mushrooms
Carrots
Squash
Zucchini
Snow peas
Onion
Potatoes
Green pepper
Red sweet pepper
Broccoli
1 stick butter
1/4 c. water
Salt & pepper to taste

Use fresh vegetables only. Make a sealed pouch from 2 large pieces of foil. Leave one end open. Put ingredients in and seal. Cook on medium heat for 15 minutes. Turn and cook 15 minutes more. Take from grill, place pouch in deep pan before opening.
I make this for large family cook-outs, but recipe can be adjusted to the amount you need.
