That’s ok PN. I never pierce mine if baking in the regular oven. Just wrap them in foil and none have ever exploded.
This article says "Bake potatoes in the oven for about 50 to 60 minutes at 425°F (220°C)." It also says to rub some olive oil on the potatoes, season the potatoes, and pierce them with a fork before baking.Nope. I thought you pierced them when they were done. Ugh.
I'm tellin ya I'm the dumbest tater maker on the planet.
What a excellent birthday dinner! Enjoy, and Happy Birthday to you!Did you pierce the potatoes? We always use a fork to pierce baked potatoes so they don't explode. Three or four pokes allows the steam to escape. We set oven to 400* and bake potatoes for about an hour. DH is cooking my birthday dinner tonight: Grilled filet mignons with baked potatoes. Nice bottle of red wine, too.
Spread some of that sweet icing on them and no one will be the wiser Your kitchen must smell wonderful!Well, clearly my kitchen skills are lacking today.
The only time in probably a decade I want a cinnamon roll, I burn them.
I swear. I just need to buy a baked potato from the steakhouse going forward. I did these 2 in the oven. First one is fine, sat the other one down and it immediately exploded. I did them in the oven at 350 degrees for 90 minutes. At least I didn’t torch the microwave this time.
Zucchini, spinach & green bean quiche. It better taste good!
We've been baking potatoes in the oven our whole lives (we're 42) and we had one explode on us exactly the same way about a month ago. My partner now stabs everything like she lives in the Bates Hotel. I don't... I figure we went decades eating potato without one exploding, it's probably not going to happen again any time soon.Well, clearly my kitchen skills are lacking today.

I haven’t pierced my baked potatoes for a long time, since I started using the a copycat Steakhouse method for baking potatoes.Nope. I thought you pierced them when they were done. Ugh.
