ingredients

POTATO
4 large baking potatoes
4 teaspoons butter
FLAVORED OIL
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 garlic clove, crushed and finely minced (optional)
1 teaspoon liquid smoke (choose mesquite -o-r- hickory flavor)
SEASONING MIX
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1⁄2 teaspoon garlic powder
1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly cracked

directions

FLAVORED OIL: In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, liquid smoke and garlic. Set aside.
SEASONING MIX: In a small dish mix kosher salt, garlic powder and black pepper. Set aside.
Wash, scrub and dry potatoes well. With a sharp paring knife, cut out a nice wedge from the potato's middle. Remove the wedge and place 1 teaspoon of butter in the hollow. Sprinkle with seasoning mix. Replace the wedge pressing down gently.

OVEN: Place potatoes in a 350 degree oven for 60 minutes.
GRILL: Place potatoes on the grill away from the coals, close the lid and grill for 40-60 minutes depending on the temperature of your grill.

These were the BEST baked potatoes I've EVER had! My husband and I love foil-wrapped baked potatoes from our favorite restaurant, and I wanted a similar recipe. These were far better than the restaurant! They're tender and flavorful. I highly recommend this recipe! Thank you!
What temperature do we put oven on
Excellent potatoes! I love variety and this brought it to the table. I was rushed for time and saw on another site to microwave each side for three minutes then grill for 5-10. That was my only deviation. Family loved it and guests loved. Thank you for the recipe.
More prep time than outcome yields, my family could not really tell a difference. I'm gonna try it again! Hard to pass judgement with one attempt.

What temperature should Baked Potatoes be cooked at?

We recommend baking potatoes at 400 degrees F for about an hour. Smaller spuds might take a little less time, while larger baking potatoes over 1 pound might take a little more. For a fully baked Idaho Russet Burbank, the internal temperature should be right at 210 degrees F.

Should I wrap my potatoes in foil to bake them?

Do not wrap potatoes in aluminum foil for baking. Foil holds in moisture and steams the potatoes, resulting in a "boiled" taste and texture. Turn the potatoes over halfway through the baking time to prevent browning of the undersides where they touch the baking tray or oven rack.

How long does it take to bake a potato at 375?

However, as a general rule, you should cook potatoes at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20-25 minutes. If you're using larger potatoes, or if you want them to be extra crispy, you can cook them for 30 minutes or more.
