  • Depending on the size of the potato cooking times may vary. Once potatoes are completely cooked. They can be left in the crock pot for several hours on warm.
  • The duration of cooking will differ depending on the size of the potato, with larger potatoes requiring more time and smaller potatoes cooking faster. This technique may be suitable for other potato varieties, such as Yukon Gold or Red potatoes, so don't hesitate to try it out.
  • For crispy skins, place the potatoes under the broiler for 2-3 minutes to achieve the desired texture. However, it's essential to do this just before serving, as the skins will lose their crispiness after being taken out of the oven.
