Arrange sliced potatoes in the bottom of the pan. Season with salt and black pepper. Top the potatoes with ⅓ of the thyme sprigs and ½ of the sliced garlic. Top with ½ tablespoon of bacon grease, broken into small pieces. Repeat with a second layer.
Top with remaining potato slices, salt and pepper, and remaining thyme sprigs. Top with ½ tablespoon of bacon grease, broken into small pieces. Cook for 10 minutes, directly over the flames, or until the bottom potatoes are starting to brown.
Move the skillet to indirect heat and top with parmesan cheese. Cook for an additional 10 minutes, until the potatoes are fork tender and the cheese is melted and golden brown.
