Ingredients

• Russet Potatoes
• Garlic Salt
• Black Pepper
• Butter

Steps

1. Preheat oven to 425F or prep your grill to medium heat.
2. Scrub the potatoes to remove dirt.
3. Poke holes in the potatoes with a fork or knife.
4. Heat in microwave for 6 minutes. (Less or more time depending on the amount of potatoes and their size)
5. Remove from microwave and place on a square of aluminum foil.
6. Rub the end of a stick of butter over the entire outside of the hot potato. The entire skin should be coated in melted butter.
7. Sprinkle a very generous amount of garlic salt over the entirety of the skin. Add coarsely ground black pepper.
8. Place 1 tbsp of butter next to the potato then wrap the potato in aluminum foil.
9. Bake or grill the potato(es) for 30 minutes to an hour. It depends on the size of the potato. (It is better to cook it a little long than to under cook it.)
10. Remove from the aluminum foil and enjoy! You actually want to eat the skin of this baked potato, and it is delicious!
11. Dress up your potato however you want. I like butter, sour cream, shredded cheese, salt and pepper, and chives!
