Prepare a grill for medium heat. Place the potatoes and 3 tablespoons of the water in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 3 to 4 minutes, until almost tender; drain.
2.
In a large bowl, combine the cheese and onion. Stir in the potatoes. Transfer to a double thickness of greased heavy-duty aluminum foil (about 18 inches square).
3.
Combine the Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic, pepper, and remaining 2 tablespoons water; sprinkle over the potatoes. Dot with the butter.
4.
Fold the foil around the potato mixture and seal tightly. Grill, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the cheese is melted. When serving, open the foil carefully to allow steam to escape.

Used different ingredients.
I didn't have any processed cheese product on hand, but I did have both cheddar and mozzarella. I grated (rather than cubed) a cup of each and the amount was just right. Next time I will pre-saute the onions and garlic, as I felt the onions didn't really get well enough cooked on the grill (nice crunch but a bit harsh with the other softer flavors). KCBS, thanks a bunch for posting this recipe. I can see lots of really wonderful possibilities here, too! (I didn't write an actual review because I did not use the ingredients specified in the recipe - Had I reviewed it as I made it, I'd have given it 4 stars, dropping it a point due to the onions)
I stumbled across this recipe one night when feeling adventurous. It sounded so simple and so good that I just had to try it. I had never grilled potatoes before so I did not know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. These were great! I used regular cheese because I don't carefor Velveta, but to each their own, right? The only thing I would have done differently is added a little bit of seasoning salt and a lot more garlic in there, too. Great recipe though. Try it!
