Ingredients

  • 0.5 cup barbecue sauce 
  • 0.3 cup honey 
  • 16  meatballs frozen cooked
  • inch onion sweet (such as Walla Walla)
  •  regular corn frozen
  • cups potatoes refrigerated cooked sliced (from 1 lb. 4-oz. pkg.)
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt 
  • 0.3 teaspoon pepper 

Equipment

  • bowl
  • grill
  • aluminum foil

Directions

  1. Heat grill.
  2. Cut four 18x12-inch sheets of heavy-duty foil; spray half of one side of each foil sheet with nonstick cooking spray. In small bowl, combine barbecue sauce and honey; blend well.
  3. Place 4 meatballs, 2 onion slices, 2 cobs of corn and 1/2 cup sliced potatoes on center of sprayed side of each sheet of foil.
  4. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Spoon 2 1/2 tablespoons sauce mixture onto meatballs and vegetables on each foil sheet.
  5. Fold foil over meatballs and vegetables so edges meet. Wrap packets securely using double-fold seals, allowing room for heat expansion, then fold again.
  6. When ready to grill, place packets on gas grill over medium heat or on charcoal grill 4 to 6 inches from medium coals. Cook 20 to 25 minutes or until meatballs are thoroughly heated and potatoes are tender, turning several times.
  7. Cut large X in center of each foil packet; open packets carefully to allow steam to escape.
