Instructions

  • Preheat. Set your grill or oven to 400 degrees F. Pierce the potatoes several times with a fork and place them on a baking sheet. Coat the potatoes in a thin layer of olive oil and season on all sides with salt. Bake for 40 minutes and remove to cool slightly.
  • Half and mix. Slice the potatoes in half and use a spoon to scoop a majority of the insides of the potatoes into a large bowl. Set the scraped potato halves on the baking sheet, cut side up.
  • Butter and broil. Increase the heat on your grill to high or turn your oven to broil. Brush the potatoes with the melted butter and season with a light dusting of Beef Rub. Return the sheet pan to the grill or oven and cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Fill. Add crumbled bacon or pulled pork and the shredded cheddar cheese to the potato skins. Return again to the grill or oven and cook until the cheese is melted and bubbling, about 3-5 minutes.
  • Cool and top. Allow to cool for 5 minutes before adding desired toppings like BBQ sauce, sour cream, and green onions. Enjoy!
