Directions
Best Baked Potato, Another keeper from Alton Brown’s show Good Eats! I don’t make baked potatoes any other way now , I do the 1st steps but I put them on a sheet pan and the bottom gets a good crust on it which is good to eat too This method is far superior to the old wrap in foil method The salt makes the difference , It IS the best baked potato recipe!! Thank you!! Delicious, simple love it!!
