Baked Potatoes

Baked potatoes are super simple to make, you just wrap them in tin foil and throw them in the BBQ or oven. The problem is they are fairly time consuming. If you come home from work at 6 and are hungry you don't want to wait 1-2 hours for the side of your meal to slowly bake away. By using a Crock Pot you can have your potatoes waiting for you when you get home.

Crock Pot Baked Potatoes
  • 4 large potatoes, washed and dried
  • 4 pieces of tin foil, large enough to wrap around 1 potato each
* Wrap each potato in a piece of tinfoil. I usually leave the one end with a 'tail' to fish them out when they are super hot and done cooking.
* Place in Crock Pot on low for 8 hours and they are soft but not mushy, 10 if you like them super soft. You could also do it on high if you have a few hours before dinner.

That is it! Now go throw some chicken on the BBQ because your side is done!
