Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 4 large russet potatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • Salt to taste

Filling

  • ¾ cup sour cream
  • 1 cup shredded pepper jack cheese

Beef and Seasoning

  • 1 lb beef medallions, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil (for beef seasoning and searing)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Garlic Herb Butter

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Minced garlic to taste (approximately 2 cloves)
  • Fresh herbs: parsley, rosemary, thyme (about 1 tablespoon each, chopped)

Instructions

  1. Preheat Grill: Preheat the grill to medium-high heat, approximately 400-425°F, to prepare for cooking the potatoes.
  2. Prepare Potatoes: Scrub the russet potatoes clean, pierce them several times with a fork, rub with olive oil and salt, then wrap each potato tightly in foil to keep moisture in during grilling.
  3. Grill Potatoes: Place the foil-wrapped potatoes on the grill and cook for 45-60 minutes, turning occasionally until they are tender when pierced with a fork.
  4. Make Garlic Herb Butter: While potatoes grill, melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add minced garlic and the fresh chopped herbs (parsley, rosemary, thyme) to infuse the butter with flavor. Keep warm.
  5. Season Beef Medallions: Toss the beef cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper to season them evenly before cooking.
  6. Sear Beef Bites: Heat a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the beef cubes for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned and cooked to desired doneness. Remove from heat.
  7. Assemble Potatoes: When the grilled potatoes are done, carefully cut them lengthwise without slicing all the way through. Open them gently and fill with a mixture of sour cream and shredded pepper jack cheese.
  8. Top and Serve: Place the seared beef bites on top of the filled potatoes and drizzle generously with the warm garlic herb butter. Serve immediately for best taste.

Notes

  • Ensure potatoes are wrapped tightly in foil to retain moisture while grilling.
  • You can substitute pepper jack cheese with cheddar or Monterey Jack if preferred.
  • Adjust garlic quantity to taste when making garlic herb butter.
  • Use a cast iron skillet for best searing results on the beef medallions.
  • Check potatoes periodically while grilling to avoid overcooking.
  • For a spicier kick, add diced jalapeños to the sour cream filling.
