After a quick cook in the microwave, baby potatoes grill up tender and flavourful making them a fabulous BBQ side dish. If using wooden skewers, make sure to soak them in water for 20 minutes first to prevent charring. You can also try skewering the potatoes on thick rosemary stems for a beautiful presentation. Grilled chicken with tangy barbecue sauce or simple grilled flank steak accompany these potatoes well.
