Directions
Bird’s Perfect Baked Potatoes, Forget the microwave for a moment and go back in time to enjoy a very moist, very creamy baked potato. This recipe is foolproof. You will need heavy duty aluminum foil for this recipe. Make extra for Recipe #287747 for tomorrow’s breakfast! :, There is nothing “PERFECT” about a baked potato with slimey skin. Perfect baked potatoes have CRISP skin., I have to give this 5 stars as this is how I make mine, I also add crushed black pepper and cook for an hour to hour and a half depending on the size of the potatoes. Excellent!
