Baked Potatoes

Tor · July 2015

Wondering if anyone has any suggestions for how to fix baked potatoes?

TexanOfTheNorth · July 2015

Wash, bake, add butter, sour cream and cheese, eat!

Sometimes, just to change things up; I'll leave the wash step out.

Wash, apply olive oil, kosher salt, temp to 205.

Wash, Salt and oil inside foil, bake at 400 for about 30 minutes ( fork test always works for me

I agree with SoCalTim, and if you are in a big hurry you can pop them in the microwave for a few minutes before putting them on the grill.

I agree with @SoCalTim, I used to wrap in foil till I did some reading. When you wrap in foil you are actually steaming the potato versus baking it. The texture is totally different. I sometimes wrap after cooking for presentation when company comes over.

+1 more for olive oil+kosher salt. On the egg indirect at 350-400 until they feel soft or IT is over 200. I don't use foil unless I need to keep them warm after I take them off.

Foil cooked is steamed.

It's always 'Double baked' for me: http://eggheadforum.com/discussion/1131516/chops-and-baked-potatoes

EVOO and Kosher Salt. 400 raised direct to IT of 210*

This is a great suggestion. If you have the time to plan ahead it is hard to beat a twice baked.

Ditto, except that I moisten mine with butter instead of olive oil. I also prefer the gold potatoes over russet potatoes.

Jeremiah · July 2015

Fwiw we got a big bag of green giant russet potatoes at SAMs this weekend. Best damn potatoes I've had in a while.

In addition to baking - I like to slice up some Yukon golds, chop up onions and peppers. Add a little EVOO and some butter. Season with favorite rub or spice. I started using a drip pan to cook them in.
