Root Beer Roasted Potatoes and Caramelized Onions - Cowboy Kent Rollins

Ingredients

  • 1.5 lb. sack mini potatoes red, russet, yellow, etc.
  • 1 large yellow onion cut into rings
  • 1 large garlic clove minced
  • Root Beer soda

Instructions

  • Slice the potatoes in half and place in a 10-inch Dutch oven or casserole dish. Stir in the onions and garlic. 
  • Pour the root beer in until it reaches about halfway up the potato mixture. 
  • Cover and let set about 10-15 minutes. 
  • Bake at 375 degrees F., uncovered,  for about 40 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. 
  • To caramelize onions: Add 1 large yellow onion (cut into rings), 1 garlic clove (minced) and about 1/2 cup rootbeer to a medium skillet. Cook over medium-high heat until the onions soften and most of the rootbeer cooks out, stirring occasionally. Serve with potatoes or on top of a steak, etc. 

Notes

You may need to add a little more root beer while cooking to make sure it the dish doesn't become too dry, especially when cooking in a Dutch oven with coals.
