This is the perfect baked potato. I have made these tons of times, and my best advice is to follow the recipe as is. I've played around with temp/baking time when I have time constraints, but they never come out as good as when I follow the recipe. As some other reviewers suggest, I also coat the potatoes with the oil in a plastic bag.

Great basic recipe for a baked potato. The skin gets really nice and crispy and the insides are fluffy. I will never microwave again. Perfect with butter, pepper and a little sour cream.

I forgot how much I love a good baked potatoe in the oven. We had huge potatoes and my son, ate all of his, which he never does. This was wonderful. Thanks!

Really delicious potato! Seems silly but I have gotten into the habit of nuking my potatoes and could not remember how long I needed to cook them in the oven. I microwaved for 5 min as another reveiwer suggested and baked for 45 min at 350. It was so delicious my husband ate the skin (he never does that)

These are PERFECT. I made these tonight and loved them..so did the kids. I used coarse GARLIC SALT instead of plain salt and it gave the skins nice flavor. I also raised the temp to 350. These had nice and crispy skins, with a soft and fluffy center. I will surely be making baked potatoes more often. Thanks for sharing this method with us.

This is a pretty darn good baked potato. I admit, I usually go the easy route and nuke my potatoes. If I have time to stick them in the oven for an hour though, I will definitely make them this way. The skin was nice and crisp. I rolled the potatoes in coarse sea salt, which was perfect. I always eat my baked potatoes with shredded cheese, sour cream, and a little ranch dressing. Mmmm!

It's, you know, a baked potato. But a REALLY good one. I used Kosher salt on mine and was pretty generous with the olive oil. I love the crispy skin, and the inside was pretty fluffy but not dried out. I had some pretty big potatoes, so I upped the temp to 385 and just let them go until they were done (per the time-honored squish-test); for me it was just under 2 hours. My kids were all over it, too, so I guess this one's a winner! **Added later - my sister reminded me about the baked potatoes from a steak house she served at years ago: coated in freakin' BACON GREASE, fresh ground pepper and kosher salt. They were good. I mean GOOOD. Try it if you dare.

Absolutely AMAZING! Normally I microwave my potatoes to save time but I won't anymore! I used the olive oil in the bag trick to reduce mess and then coated the potato with sea salt. Skipped the cheese and stuck with butter, sour cream and sprinkle of pepper. Can't wait to make these again!

This is a perfect baked potato. I followed the recipe except for the cooking temperature and time. I baked my potatoes at 350 degrees for 1 hour. They came out perfect, just as the name says.

This is the only way I make my baked potatoes now. I use sea salt instead of table salt, and when in a pinch, I've had equally good results cooking the potatoes on 400 for 45 minutes. I think the olive oil and the salt are what makes this recipe better than the competition.
