Steps
Step 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the potatoes and cook until they are barely fork tender, 8-10 minutes. Drain and allow the potatoes to cool slightly.
Ingredients
1 Pound baby Yukon potatoes, scrubbed
To Taste kosher salt
Step 2
When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 400℉ and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.
400 ˚F / 204 ˚C
Step 3
Cut the potatoes in half, then transfer to a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper to taste. Add 1/4 cup olive oil and toss until the potatoes are well-coated.

Step 4
Arrange the potatoes and the lemon, cut-sides down, directly on the grill grates. Close the lid and cook for 10 minutes, until grill marks appear on the lemon. Remove the lemon from the grill, then flip the potatoes, close the lid, and cook for another 10 minutes. Transfer the potatoes to a large bowl.
