Baked Potatoes

TXTriker

Got the Bakers on now at 350 for about 1 hour to go with the left over ribs from Sunday that I have yet to upload pictures for. EVOO and wrapped in foil.

stike

foil?!?!
BAH!

(loves me the baked potats....)

Morro Bay Rich

AMEN!!!!

TXTriker

Okay Stike and Morro Bay Rich, are y'all telling me next time to nix the foil? I'm following the wife's instructions this time. Next time, if y'all say get rid of the foil, I'll do it without.

It was a last minute instruction.

TAKE IT OFF TAKE IT OFF TAKE IT ALL OFF...

Like takin a shower with a rain coat - what fun is that.

TXTriker

Okay, I'll go do it. Shouldn't take long. Same time?

Grandpas Grub

May as well put em in the microwave to finish off.

If you have just started or even if not put on on EVOO & Kosher salt - NO HOLES. 400° abt an hr.

Havent foiled a potato in years. EVOO & garlic or kosher salt.

Pretty close. Test with a fork about 3/4 hr through.

If you are direct you should watch for turning or put them on a raised grid. You most likely will bet some scorching that long direct.

I think my messages got out of order. Maybe 'cause I inadvertantly highlighted something and hit submit twice, so maybe this will make up for it.

Grandpas Grub

Hmmmm, Good too.

Try some lemmon pepper and best of all is Garlic Pepper!!!

TXTriker

Indirect, foils gone, EVOO but I can't remove the holes.

Grandpas Grub

You are a good man Charlie Brown...

Bet you get some hugs for great spuds.

My favorite way to cook them is to just throw them on to the coals, but you need to some good sized ones to do it right.

Grandpas Grub

Oh, noooooooooo

Wife likes to add parm. cheese to the top but I can't taste the diff. Just smells funny cooking :silly:

Grandpas Grub

CW,

Potential dumb question on the way here... good size spuds or good size lump?

There is a lot of heat down there, do you foil & how long do you cook.

GG

Celtic Wolf

Good Size Taters. No Foil. Cook till the outside looks like the coals :woohoo:

For my next trick I will boil an egg in a paper cup..

Grandpas Grub

Thanks Mike, I have never seen that recipe. Those look great.

TXTriker

Now that's what we did back in my scouting days, but then we did use foil to keep them from burning.

Celtic Wolf

Foil was for hamburger packets....

TXTriker

CW, you really do the taters directly in the coals without foil? For how long?

TXTriker

Hey, that was a long time ago.

Beli

Talking about group prasure.... :ohmy: .........hope wife is not mad.... :(

TXTriker

Mike, thanks and the link worked great.

Celtic Wolf

Yes I do if they are large enough. Like I said when you can not tell the difference between the lump and the tater then the tater is done. Just crack it open and scoop out all the delicious potato.

.o0(Think I will do this at the Florida Eggfest)

Celtic Wolf

She'll get over it.. :woohoo:

Course that may be the only thing the will be got.. :evil:

TXTriker

At the time I told her I was told to get that blinkity blank foil off, she said, "ask me and then ask the guys. See if I help again." or something to that effect. I told her I didn't ask, I just said taters were on in foil to have with the left over ribs. I did tell her at that time I had 16 responses.
I'll let her read them when she gets home. She'll recover. I did tell her y'all have done more taters on the egg then I have.

TXTriker

CW, that's kinda like I like my hot dogs and some of my other foods. Burn it!

FlaPoolman

this one was 400 direct, 1 hour, with evoo & garlic salt no foil. Steak didn't come out so good but potato was great.
