Fully-Loaded Baked Potatoes (The Best)
Ingredients
- 4 large russet potatoes, scrubbed clean
- 4 slices bacon
- 2 green onions
- 1/4 cup (57 g) butter, softened
- 1 cup (250 ml) sour cream
- 1 1/2 cups (150 g) shredded cheddar cheese
- Salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the grill, setting the burners to high. Oil the grate.
- Individually wrap each potato in aluminum foil. Place on the grill, close the lid and cook for 30 to 40 minutes, or until tender. Let cool slightly.
- Meanwhile, grill the bacon slices for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until crisp. Drain on paper towels. Chop finely.
- Chop the whites of the green onions, then thinly slice the green part. Set aside separately.
- Lay the potatoes horizontally on a work surface and slice
- a thin layer off of each. Scoop out the potato flesh, leaving
- about 1/2 inch (1 cm) of flesh all around. Set the hollowed-out potatoes aside.
- In a bowl, lightly mash the potato flesh. Add the butter, sour cream, onion whites, 1 cup of cheese and half the bacon. Combine well. Season with salt and pepper.
- Generously stuff the hollowed potatoes. Sprinkle with the remaining cheese, bacon and onion greens.
- Reduce the grill heat to medium. Place the stuffed
- potatoes directly on the grate and continue cooking for
- 15 to 20 minutes, or until the cheese has melted.
