This sounds quite good. I will try this recipe this summer (using regular potatoes) I think that might be better! Let you know what I think?

When we were out in Okla. visiting universities there, we got to visit Eskimo Joe's Restaurant . They had the most incredible cheese fries. My husband loves making these potatoes and adding canned chili on top of them..like Texas Pete or Hormel Chili without beans....just another way to make them even better.

This is the best, easiest side dish for camping and now we use it the rest of the year. It's a favorite and requested all the time. It takes few ingredients and yet it tastes like you fussed over it. Using the O'Brien hash browns makes this a breeze to prepare. We did change from foil to foil pans, much easier to handle on the campfire.
