These potatoes were easy to prepare but they took much longer than the 40 minutes and were too garlicky for my family. No one would have more than a few bites. Too bad.

I did these on the grill. I did two potatoes and partially microwaved them to cut down on time. I scored them and didn't measure the spices. I used seasoned salt and garlic powder. I also used a little melted butter and olive oil - not too much just enough to rub onto the potatoe. These are always delicious. I served them with a side of sour cream.

These were just okay. These took longer than 40 min & you had a big pool of butter in the foil. Thanks for something new, but I don't think I'll make again, rather do regular baked potatoes.

I personally did not like these potatoes at all but I have it 3 stars because some of the people I cooked for loved them. However if someone is to make this recipe I recommended that he or she poke holes in the potatoes with a fork so the flavors can soak through the whole potato. Thanks!

This was okay. I thought the garlic was too powerful...maybe next time I will go with the fresh garlic as some others suggested. I would try it again. It was nice to have all the toppings on the potato when it was put on your plate...no forever adding butter, salt, etc. and mashing it all around...

Great idea! It was so easy, and tasted a lot better than traditional baked potatoes. I'll definitely make my potatoes like this from now on!

I have done this before, however, for simplifying this extremely simple recipe, I use Garlic butter and before serving, give the a quick grill for beautiful markings and flavor.

My trick for this is to wrap the potato in foil and then only poke holes on the upper side. That way the butter stays where it belongs and crisps up the peel. I love to use this when camping.

We make these a lot in the summer and do them on the grill. A delicious alteration and for slightly faster cooking is to slice the potatoes and layer them with onions drizzling olive oil and salt and pepper between the layers.

wow, 1 tsp per potato of garlic powder for four potatoes was waaaaay too much. Half would have been plenty. Also too much salt, I'd half that next time too, especially if not using unsalted butter. We added sour cream at the table to cut the saltiness so they were edible. These are not for people who are wanting a crispy skin. I love crispy skin but this was a nice change. Be careful when wrapping the potato that it is sealed very tightly. When you put them into the oven, make sure the folded ends are pointing UP because the butter leaked out all over the bottom of the oven and smoked up the kitchen. I don't know why I didn't expect that. I would make this again, just half the salt and garlic powder, or use fresh garlic and sea salt. Thanks for the great idea, it really made the potato more flavorful.

What a waste of time. My medium-large spuds took well over 90 minutes to soften, and even then there were a couple of hard spots near the skin. The skin is my favorite part of baked taters, but they turned out soggy, wrinkly and inedible. I'll stick with my usual method of nuking the potatoes for 6 minutes, then finishing them off in the oven at about 450 for 30 mins. Not recommended.

They cook quicker than without the foil. Otherwise it tastes about the same way that Alton Brown taught. Poke Holes with Fork, drizzle with oil, cover in salt, bake. Very Good, though.

My mother-in-law saves the foil wrappers from her butter in the freezer. There is usually just enought butter left on them to give potatoes a crispy skin. You can save on fat too!
