Slow Cooker “Campfire” Potatoes

August 2, 2017 by Sarah Olson 12 Comments

Make these Slow Cooker “Campfire” Potatoes for your next cookout or while camping if you have hook-ups.

Slow Cooker "Campfire" Potatoes

I haven’t been able to go camping (in our travel trailer) this year. We had some family emergencies and we also just got back from a Carnival Cruise, which took up some of our normal camping dates. I love making recipes in my slow cooker while camping, instead of grilling or using the fire. It’s mainly because I know that I’ll get good results and it’s even more joyful for me to cook in the slow cooker when it’s not at home!

When I started preparing to make these potatoes I planned to make loaded style potatoes, then I came across a few recipes online that use Worcestershire sauce, I added some extra flavors like garlic and parmesan to make these potatoes unique. The butter sauce that I make for these potatoes tastes like a homemade dressing. If you are looking for a unique recipe to make, this is a great one to try.

After the potatoes are mixed with the butter mixture, it may seem dry. It won’t be I promise, the butter will melt back down and make a delicious sauce for the potatoes.

Below is what the potatoes look like after cooking on high for 4 hours. Keep the lid on the entire time so the potatoes get tender.

I hope you enjoy this side dish recipe! I’ll be back next week with another new recipe. I’m wishing summer wasn’t flying by so fast so I can make more recipes like this one.

I used my 6-quart Crock-Pot® for this recipe, though any slow cooker 4-quarts or larger will work fine.

    Hi… Wondering if you have ever doubled the campfire potato recipe, or 1 1/2 times??
    How much longer and did it cook good
    with more potatoes stacked higher,??? Thank you… Janice

      I think the cooking time will remain the same. Keep the lid on the entire time.

    I wonder if you can do this recipe with cauliflower as opposed to potatoes? Just maybe not cook it as long.

    I think this dish makes a great meal with a fresh lettuce salad and maybe some fruit. Was thinking of adding some portabellos.

    Thanks Sarah! This was a great recipe! I made it camping and everyone loved them. I cooked them all day and used one of those liners for the crockpot so cleanup was easy. The worcheshire sauce is the key and adds a perfect kick! Shared this recipe with all my friends.

    Hi Sarah – since there is only one of me that I cook for when I made this recipe, I took the left overs and placed them in 3 individual freezer bags. Then later I took a bag out and added 2 Tablespoons of milk and reheated it in a microwave bowl for 2 – 2/12 minutes. Yum!!! Thanks for a great recipe.
