When preparing to go to a NASCAR race, Kenny Hussey of Hanover, New Hampshire, and his friends Mark Kovac of Lebanon, Pennsylvania, and Chris Broderick of Lebanon, New Hampshire, spend weeks planning the food they’ll eat while camping in an RV for several days. Close to home at the Loudon, New Hampshire, race, they enjoy cooking lobster and clams. But Kenny’s potatoes, which are called “badadas” for reasons now lost to history, are a must-have. This is a flexible recipe—adjust the amounts to feed the number of fans at your tailgate and to suit your own taste.
