I got a very similar recipe from a Mormon lady but I am happy to give the Methodists  credit for this fabulous way of doing potatoes.  These cook up great using a Dutch Oven and my Boy Scouts love them.  Something about eating food from a black pot makes a lot of things taste great. Or maybe it is just all the running around we do in camp that makes us starving

cooked in a black pot sounds good.  I failed to mention that I am a Baptist, but Aunt Vola is a Methodist.  Baptist, Methodist, Mormon, let's just say we are all Christians and that's what counts.  We can all eat the potatoes and right now I have a dish of Methodist Potatoes in the oven baking for the family reunion and I need to shower and get dressed or people will be there and I won't even have the door unlocked yet.  Have a good day everyone.

 Don't forget us Presbyterians!    My mom's grandparents were Morman. And then there's Garrison Keillor's Lutheran "hot dish." It all sounds good to me!   Have a wonderful day Flo.
