Great video! before this video I made countless attemps to bake a potato and they would always turn out hard. Thanks to this video my husband and I enjoyed the PERFECT baked potato and for the first time he even ate the skin. Keep up the great work! You guys are so cute by the way!
I just cooked this. This was not my first baked potatoe, but it had been a while so I came to your video. I just dabbed olive oil on it and did everything else you did, minus the tin foil and it came out great. I will have to make another one tonight. Thank you.
Olive oil cooking spray... is that like Pam cooking spray or any other canola oil spray? Understandably one is olive oil and the other is not, but can Pam be used the same way? I thought it was only good for non stick, not for actually cooking the food it self or is that why you use olive oil cooking spray? Presumably it would be safe for eating regardless, since you use it for non stick with food... just never thought of actually using it to coat my food with it.
@Jerrid3 Yes, you could use the canola oil spray if you like. Pam makes an olive oil spray as well. Either one will do, or you can not use it and the baked potato will be fine too.
I used to use this way for so long. But for some reason, the laziness of a microwave works great on a potato. Just make sure you microwave it for long enough and have holes in the potato so it can cook correctly. About 8 minutes and you got a good potato (maybe not as great skin, but most of the time the potato inside comes out great)
thanks for sharing!...but what do u do after u opened the potato like that?...am i supposed to put butter, cream, cheese and all that stuff in...and then just bake the whole thing again? for how long?
We've tried poning holes, and don't find that it makes any difference when baking potatoes in the oven. I think you really need to do it if you're making them in a microwave, although I don't know for sure as we've never done a baked potato in a microwave ourselves. Thanks for watching!
Don't know why "most videos say NOT to wrap the videos in foil"...We've done it both ways, and both ways are good. We like the foil wrap because it leaves the skin softer.
I did up 5 taters and my family flipped over how good they were!
Thank you for this video.
I'm subbing!
(You wouldn't know how to make green beans in some sort of bacon grease white sauce would you? Had that once and can't find it ever again. It was awesome!)
Thank you! Yes, we do make some awesome green bean casserole. We have a green bean recipe on the website, I don't remember if it's the casserole or not.
Great video. I did exactly as you said, and it seems like my baked potato is gonna turn out real well. One side is done, I've just turned it over and will now wait for the other side to cook. The olive oil and salt are great tips.
Oh amazing! It was perfect! I never thought I'd be able to make such a brilliant baked potato. I've been trying to make them since I was a teenager but they always turned out ruined. Thanks for the great video!
Nice! A baked potato seems so easy to do, but to you've really got to know what you are doing to get them just right. Tried this and the taters come out marvelous
Here's something for you to try, if you want true restaurant quality "baked" potatoes and not "steamed baked" potatoes:
Do not cover them in foil; rather, puncture them with a knife or fork four times on each side. Oil and season as stated in this video, and then place the potatoes on the middle positioned rack of your preheated oven of 400 degrees F. Be sure to place a cookie sheet or foil on the rack below your potatoes.
They'll come out perfect and "flaky" (inside) in just over an hour.
Thanks for your tip. We tried them this way, and they came out fine. Beryl prefers the foil because it makes the skin a little softer and easier to eat, she says. I did like the skin a little more without the foil. Thanks for watching!
I'm making this right now it's in the oven!! You should try cheese on it.
Thanks soo much for this tutorial! You should have more views! I love the intro and everything.
And you have your own website? That's great!
I love when people know that they might not have their own cooking show but They make the best damn tutorial on youtube and make it THEIR OWN show, ya know what I mean? Lol Sorry if you don't
OH that looks wonderful, I can't wait to try this. Simple really, but I wasn't to sure how to get it right before watching this. Thank you for posting your video!
wow... that is so good lookin. awesome job from temecula , ca. I can make some killer guacamole but holy cow is that a good looking baked potato!!!! mmm....mmmmmm. You look like you had fun making it too!
We've baked potatoes withoug the foil, and they do come out great. I just like to eat the skin too, and the skin seems to come out too hard without the foil wrap.
I've always microwaved my baked potatoes with not so delectable results. Thanks to you guys I'm gonna make some delicious baked potatoes and steak..Your way!
As always, you guys rock!!!:) All the way from Chicago, you both inspire me,in your cooking as well as the love that you both have for one another and it shows on film:) Kudos to you both on a beautiful family and loads of love.
Thank you so much. This is the nicest comment we've ever received! And thank you so much for watching our videos and for taking the time to write this note.

Foil steams the potato in it's own juice. I always bake mine at 370 for 45-1hr.unraped with a little oil and maybe a poke. The will come out fluffy!
