just put a couple of jacket spuds in the oven, they will be buttered and have cheese + black pepper on but im undecided whether to have B/beans or coleslaw

EDIT: went with B/beans in the end

Always used to love baked potatoes with cheese and beans!

Just had one for lunch actually. Just cheese though, no beans.

i stab a fork into mine a few times then microwave on low power for 2 mins, turn, then 90s, turn, then 30 sec, i find this gets them nice and hot and releases some starch.. then its into the oven for an hour

Ahhh that's different and a good shout. However I know people that microwave them for 10 minutes and then leave it at that. Tried it once, never again!
