- 4baking potatoes,such as Russett, well-scrubbed
- 4tbspbutter,melted, or olive oil, plus an additional 1 tbsp
- sea salt and pepper,freshly-cracked
- 4tbsphot sauce
- 1cupcheddar cheese,shredded
- ½cupblue cheese,crumbled, to garnish
- ½cupgreen onions,thinly-sliced, to garnish
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
-
To slice the potatoes, make sure first that the potatoes are each laying nice and flat without wobbling. Cut off a thin slice on the bottom to even them out.
-
Take a sharp paring knife and begin to make vertical cuts along the potato, about 3mm apart, and cutting ¾ of the way down the potato nearly to the bottom.
-
Once done, brush the outsides of each potato liberally with the melted butter (or olive oil). Try to also gently open a few of the slits to get some butter down in there.
-
Sprinkle some salt and pepper all over the potatoes, and lay it out on an aluminum-foil-covered baking sheet.
-
Bake for about 60 to 70 minutes, removing it 2 to 3 times during baking to re-baste with the butter that will collect on the bottom of the baking sheet.
-
Bake until the centers of the potatoes are cooked, and the edges are slightly crispy and a little wilted around the edges. The potatoes will fan open a bit during cooking
-
While the potatoes are cooking, whisk together the hot sauce and an additional 1 tablespoon of melted butter to make the buffalo sauce.
-
Once the potatoes are cooked, remove and immediately sprinkle with shredded cheddar cheese. Then drizzle with the buffalo sauce as desired.
-
Garnish with the crumbled blue cheese and sliced green onions. Serve immediately.
