Bacon Wrapped Baked Potatoes

These are not your average baked potatoes! These were so good that they disappeared before I could even snap a picture of them! But WARNING: these are calorie laden!!!

Ingredients

• 1 yellow onion, thinly sliced
• one baking potato per person,
  
• 2 thick sliced bacon (I used Oscar Meyer Hickory smoked) per potato
  
• 2 pads of butter per potato
  
• garlic salt and fresh ground pepper

1. Scrub potatoes really well, cutting imperfections off the potatoes, but leaving most of the skin intact.
2. Slice the potatoes horizontally. Polk 15 times with a fork tine on each side. Generously salt and pepper all sides of the potato.
   
3. Layer butter, onion slice and another butter slice on cut side of potato halves; top with other potato half.
   
4. Wrap each potato with two bacon strips. Season bacon with pepper. Secure with toothpicks if needed.
   
5. Place on a lightly greased baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325 degrees F for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until potato is tender and bacon is crispy.
   
6. Discard toothpicks.

MY TIP: It's important to polk the holes with a fork to allow all the flavors to seep into the potato.
