Notes

  • You can definitely see the grilling magic at work here with those gorgeous charred spots. Cooking them over an open flame ensures they’re served hot and perfectly cooked.
  • A sprinkle of steak seasoning is all you need to bring out the potatoes' natural sweetness without drowning it out, adding just the right touch of savory goodness.
  • As for the garlic mayo, imagine a thick, creamy dip that pairs wonderfully with the potato wedges. Trust me, you’ll want to make a big batch because they’re incredibly hard to resist. This recipe is super simple but the end result? Absolutely amazing!
