#N:uicsl:3800016:000:465 uicsl!twt Nov 13 16:18:00 1983 The best way I've found to cook baked potatoes is not in a microwave, but in a crock-pot. It takes a LOT longer, but this is guaranteed to come out PERFECT every time. Wash potatoes, let dry, rub skins lightly with butter or margarine, prick with fork and put in crock-pot on low for 8-10 hours. Voila, perfect potatoes. Mary I know some of the crock-pot books say otherwise, but this is my own tried and true method, and better than 'real' recipies.

Basically the same effect can be duplicated in an oven for 1 hour at 350. Just don't dry the potatoes before rubbing with butter/marjarine. Larry Kohn
