Great product Jan 09, 2007
By D. Henry
While the principle of the product is rather simple (a flat piece of metal with spikes sticking up), it is very useful. The instructions are very easy - coat with a light coating of oil, and drop the potatoes on the metal spikes. Stick on BBQ and cook. Allegedly cooks faster than potatoes would in an oven.
Here are my reflections after my first time using this contraption:
1) I started cooking potatoes at the same time as the steak and vegetables. By the time my steak and asparagus were cooked, the potatoes needed another 10 minutes or so. In hindsight, I should have started the potatoes while the grill was heating up; and they would have been done on time
2) I varied from the original instructions - wrapping two of the four potatoes in aluminum foil before placing them on the spikes. They cooked faster, though had less of a roasted taste (that I found very desirable!)
3) On one of the four spikes I placed a sweet potato - which tasted fantastic after coming off the grill! It needed no foil, and cooked a little faster than the exposed (foil-free) potatoes.
In summary, you should probably start cooking the potatoes while the grill is heating up. You can wrap them in foil to make the job faster; though it will cut back on the nice roasted flavor that you otherwise get.
I gave it 4 stars because it isn't 100% non-stick, even with a coat of oil. When I pull potatoes off the rack, they tend to stick to the spike and tear that part of the potato open. Still taste great, though!

 Wonderful! Jul 20, 2010
By Longmontlady

I pimped out my hubbies man grill for his birthday. We used this first time yesterday. The potatoes were wonderful. When I read the package info, I'm thinking now how would "barbecuing" a tator be different than baking or even oven roasted. Trust me, they are. They are crispy outside and fluffy in the middle.

 OK, but save your money Aug 27, 2007
By Patrick A. Schommer
"KimLuckyDay"
Bought this on a whim to add to the other grill accessories in the garage. Didn't really cook the potatoes quicker than before and was tough to clean. It does keep the spuds in place (as long as there aren't more than 4) where you can continue to brush them with melted butter, mmmmmmmm. Be sure to use non-stick spray (found that out the hard way). Save your money - wrap them in foil and throw them on.
Purchased as gift May 21, 2011

I purchased this rack as a gift for my parents. I have not used it nor eaten anything cooked on it, but they love it and can't wait to grill their next potatoes.
