Campfire (or oven) Potatoes- Cubed potatoes in a bath of butter, salt, and pepper

Do you need a meal to take on your next camping trip? Or do you need an excuse to eat melted butter? Campfire potatoes are simple to make and only require a few ingredients (easy enough to fit into a cooler). Campfire potatoes can be cooked in an oven or over a campfire. Either way you'll end up with a decadent meal that'll make your mouth water for more. 

Step 1: Ingredients and Supplies

Before you begin you need to gather your ingredients and supplies. Find 1-2 potatoes per person, salt, pepper, and a stick of butter. Also collect a sharp knife, cutting board, aluminum foil, a baking sheet, and an oven.

Try cutting up an onion and a bit of garlic to really make this take off.

Also I have over time been convinced to make this slightly healthier by reducing the amount of butter a bit and adding some water to steam it a bit......I still prefer the butter personally.
