Low and Slow Baked Potatoes?

Options
 I'm going to do a low and slow prime rib tomorrow with a reverse sear. I was wondering how the potatoes would turn out if I threw them on with the prime rib. A little later on in the cook I'm thinking.
  Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance.

    I am interested in your plan with the prime rib as far as low and slow temp and time..

    Never did potatoes low and slow. Should be fine. If there not done when the guest of honor prime rib is done a couple minutes in the microwave should do it.

    Leave em uncovered till they have the color you want. After that wrap em up in foil to finish baking. I've done this many times on L&S when only using one egg.

      I am planing on a temp about 225 to 250. I have a maveric  dual prob. So I'm thinking that I may pull around 120 let it rest while i crank the temp up to sear. Meanwhile I may throw those spuds back on to get spud bark.

      I guess that I may be starting a new thread.

      Pulled spud. (aka potato)

      Maybe a winner. I have heard of mashed potatoes but never pulled potato.

      Should I copyright the idea?

      Let me know. I may get rich from this idea, so no one still this okay.

    As long as the tubers hit 210 or so, you'll be good to go.

    I've foil wrapped potatoes and had them cook for 4-5 hours at 225-250.  It doesn't hurt them at all, in fact i think it gives them a better consistency.  I think its pretty common in the food service industry to hold baked potatoes at ~200 for long periods of time.
