This recipe works best with small potatoes that are about 1 1/2 inches in diameter. If using medium potatoes, 2-3 inches in diameter, cut potatoes in quarters. If potatoes are larger than 3 inches in diameter, cut each potato into eights. Since potatoes are cooked in microwave, use wooden skewers. Very good recipe done on the BBQ.
