- Опубліковано 20 січ 2023
- What exactly is a jacket potato you ask? In a nutshell, it's the English version of a loaded baked potato. A crispy outer shell or jacket and fluffy interior, combined with cheese, beans and all the fixings make for the perfect comfort food. It takes about 5 mins to get everything ready and then you can let your oven do all the work. Give this hearty comfort food a try the next time you have a hankering for a potato.

Serves - 2
Ingredients:
2 Russet Potatoes
2 tbs Butter
1 can Heinz Beans
Grated White English Cheddar Cheese
Bacon Bits
Chives (chopped)
Directions:
1. Waah/scrub the potatoes to remove any dirt.
2. Slice the length and then across the width of the potatoes about 1/4" deep
3. Place the potatoes directly on the rack in a 425 F or 220 C oven and bake for 1 1/2 - 2 hours or until the skin is crispy.
4. About 20-30 mins before the potatoes finish, place the beans in a small pan and heat over low until hot.
5. Carefully open the potatoes by squeezing from the corners and place a pat of butter inside and mix it in.
6. Top with some of the grated cheese and bacon bits, then scoop 2-3 Spoonfuls of the beans over the top.
7. Finish them off with more grated cheese, some bacon bits and chopped fresh chives for some color.
*Notes*
- We typically get the beans at Cost Plus but have also found them at our local grocery store. They can also be ordered from Amazon (what can't these days?) -

This is a really easy thing to make on those nights when you don’t want to be in the kitchen… a little prep work and then your oven does all the work.
British classic, very nice 😊
Indeed it is! Thank you.
From England UK here.
Hi I cook my jacket potatoes the same except I use a skewer/metal kebab stick, to pierce the potatoes all the way through then bake. I make the same marking with a knife and pinch as you did but that’s after it is cooked. Beans and cheese classic here. Also chilli, tuna mayo or just plain cheese. Delicious 😊
My mom used to bake potatoes with an aluminum nail through the middle when I was a kid growing up. I’ll have to pick some up and give it a try. 😄
A british classic! Shame you didn't olive oil, salt and pepper the skins, but we're not all perfect! ;)
I’m far from perfect 😄. I’ve done them both ways, but stuck with the way my wife first made them for me when we were dating. This is one of our fall/winter favorites.
Fair one if it's for sentimental reasons! One of my favs too (i have one in the oven as we speak). Thanks for the vid mate. @@howieskitchen
I just picked up a couple potatoes at the store myself and will be making them tonight 😄
I find they work better without olive oil.
Thank you for the video
You’re welcome.
I am crazy about it so delicious
We love doing these in the Fall/Winter..
Thank You!
You’re welcome
As a British guy I have to commend your wife and you. This is how we like it and you did it well. Good you cooked the beans over time so they are soft. Brits are notorious for rushing and they’ll microwave it all for disappointment
She taught me well. 😄
Hmm seems so yummy
Thank you, it’s one of our favorites.
Perfect timing. We're making a plant-based version as I write this. We were looking at each other wondering what to have-we wanted something more than a snack and less than a full meal. I often put leftover chili on a baked potato but I'd never have considered baked beans Excellent football food. I can see us having this often. Thank you for sharing.
Happy to hear that. I had never though of chili, I bet that would be great as well.
I substitute Bush’s Vegetarian baked beans, here is the States. Tastes the same and way cheaper. I also use shredded Mexican 4 cheese blend . Same with Beans on Toast!
Sounds good, we change things up from time to time, but this is the way we were taught originally.
I subbed because you did not say: don't forget to press the like button, share and subscribe! Class all its own... Thanks for the recipe 🙏🪻
That’s one of my pet peeves… don’t waste the viewers time by asking for likes, comments and subscriptions. We all know how it works.. 😄
cheers mark nans doing frontflips
Enjoy 😄
Hi, can this be done without an oven on a microwave or the stove?
You could do it in the microwave, but the skin won’t crisp up like it would n the oven. Never heard of this being done in the stove, so can’t say in that.
I'd try to make one of this. but did you eat the skin ? is it edible ?
Yes, you can eat the skin. It’s actually very good for you.
This must be the first chef who doesn't give you the oven temp. I wonder what else he might have forgotten to tell. Bon appetite.
he said in the beginning to pre heat to 425 degrees
Oh my apologies.
I also have the full ingredient list and instructions written up in the description of each video…

👍👍
Nice,New friend ✅
Thank you
how to eat it without even peeling of the potato?
You would treat it like a bowl and just eat the flesh inside. I prefer to eat the skin myself though.
Kumpir, turkish food
Yup, same concept.
It’s not a version it’s the original mate
You can do better than an original.
