maybe a dumb question...

what potatoes do you use? and do you microwave yours or oven?

i use a microwave, are there any recommended taters?

I use a microwave first and then put it the oven, makes it much quicker

I use sweet potatoes (much tastier IMO), and cook them as Icepick generally.

Generally use "Baking Potatoes", lol, and whack em in the oven for about 90mins.

I like both sweet pots and normal baking pots. and yes I microwave to start and then maybe 10-12 minutes in the oven.

best fillings? I'd have to say tuna and beans.

specific design for awsome pots!!!

stab big ass pot with knife all over, wrap in kitchen roll and wet (not soak).
put in micro for 6 mins.
take out of kitchen roll and cover in layer of olive oil and some rock salt.
bake in 190 oven for 45 mins.
pot perfection!! RF sour cream and chives ;)
