Whoa~~ We may have just improved life’s most perfect food..the Potato! I know, it doesn’t seem possible, but this Potato has BACON! And not just any Bacon, but sweet, BBQ glazed Bacon!
Crack through that golden Bacon ‘shell’ and sink into a hot, fluffy tender Potato! ~You’ll never settle for an un-baconed Potato again..lol! 🙂
You can make these as dark as you’d like. I tried them both ways and it was ALL good!
What you’ll need:
Baking Potatoes..medium to large
3-4 slices of Bacon per each Potato
approx. 2-3 tablespoons of BBQ Sauce per Potato, I used Sweet Baby Rays, but you can use your fave!
Directions:
Wrap each Potato with the Bacon strips…kind of overlapping them until the entire Potato is covered…
Brush them with some of the BBQ Sauce and bake them on a sheet pan (covered in foil) at 400 degrees for approx. 45-1 hour. OR until they’re golden, soft in the middle and done to your liking.
Baste the Potatoes with BBQ sauce periodically throughout the baking process to keep them nice and sauced up! You can turn them over halfway through cooking if you want both sides equally crisp. Or..use a rack on top of the sheet pan so the grease drains away. 🙂
Let them cool just a bit, eat them…be AMAZED! ~Enjoy! 🙂
