Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 slices thick-cut bacon, coarsely chopped
4 10- to 12-ounce russet potatoes, scrubbed, each pierced several times with fork
1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter
1/4 cup whole milk

Steps:

  • Sauté bacon in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat until crisp and brown. Transfer bacon to paper towels to drain.
  • Bake all potatoes in microwave on high until tender, about 10 minutes per side. Cut top 3/4 inch off each potato lengthwise. Scoop cooked potato flesh into medium bowl, leaving 1/4-inch-thick potato shell. Add butter and milk to potato flesh in bowl and mash well. Stir in bacon; season to taste with salt and pepper. Spoon potato mixture into shells. Place potatoes on baking sheet.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F. Bake potatoes until filling is heated through and shells are crisp, about 30 minutes.

These potatoes were a bit too greasy for me. I would have liked less bacon grease.

I love that this recipe uses bacon grease to flavor the potatoes. It gives them such a rich and savory flavor.

These potatoes were delicious! I used a russet potato which made them extra fluffy. I also added some diced onions and green peppers to the filling for extra flavor.
