[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have great childhood memories of baked potatoes. Mashed with butter and salt and pepper with a crispy skin. The baked potatoes I make for myself are awful. I don’t know how it is possible to mess it up. I put a few cuts for steam in russets, [b]wrap them in tin foil[/b], and bake them for an hour plus. They always stay lumpy in parts. They aren’t fork tender. And they don’t taste very good. The skins also aren’t crispy. What am I doing wrong?[/quote] This were you go wrong. For oven or gas grill baking, don’t wrap them in foil. They basically steam and end up closer to boiled than baked. I just throw them as is. Some recipes advise to cost with oil & salt. We wrap in foil only when we camp and throw them straight into the hot coals.[/quote]
