These potatoes certainly did get very crunchy on the bottom, yet soft and tender on the insides. We enjoyed them, but did need to add some salt and pepper as despite the garlic and the Tabasco, there really wasn't as much zip as expected (next time I will add quite a bit more garlic & Tabasco). An easy and different way to make potatoes.

    Very good. I added more Habanero Tabasco® sauce because we like things very spicy. After putting them on the cookie sheet I did poke the tops before brushing them with the seasoned butter (as crawfish pie suggested). I'll definitely make these again.

    Excellent, tasty recipe. I'll be making these again this week and many more. Loved the crunchy, creamy textures with the garlic and Tabasco kick. Thanks for sharing.

    Wow what a mouth pleaser this was!I should have made more cause we all wanted more!Even those who dont like Tabasco(do those people exsist?)will enjoy this.I think I doubled the Tabasco and the taste was so subtle the kids can even enjoy it!!The outside is nice and crispy and the inside was soft and yummy!!Next time I think I will prick the potatoes with a fork so some of the butter seeps down to the middle!!Wonderful recipe!Thanks for sharing!

    Now this is my idea of a baked potato - Golden crust on the cut side and the skin was crisp, Love garlic on potatoes. I was generous with the Tabasco hit - gave just that little zip Thanks Betsy502 for a real winner Oct 06 I made these again and enjoyed them as much & more than the last time

    Thanks for posting this very easy recipe. I also did a few pieces of pumpkin to go with the potatoes and they were just as yummy Cheers.

    Excellent! The garlic and tabasco aren't like you think, it bakes into the potato forming the crust with the oil making the flavor subtle, nothing overpowers the taste of the potato, it only adds. They were beautiful with the deep golden crust. Only change: I used olive oil in place of the butter to reduce the sodium. This is a keeper recipe! Thank you.

    These potatoes were really good. They were such a nice change of pace. Next time I might slice the potatoes into wedges.
