Using a fork, prick the potatoes several times. Lightly coat the potatoes with olive oil, salt and pepper.
Roast the whole potatoes over indirect medium heat for an hour, or until there is no resistance when a knife is inserted into the centre. Once cooked, remove from the barbecue to cool slightly.
