Baked Potato Volcano

Submitted by joancole

"https://www.facebook.com/TheBBQBible/videos/619839831519473/ The video does not say how many potatoes this makes, so it may be there's too much cheese, and you have all the scooped potato to use as a leftover in another meal. Consider quantities as loose guidelines. I'm typing this in now because I hate working with a video that has no text recipe to print. For a grilled variant: this video is basically the same: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKPRIgxSXpA"
