Baked potatoes are a staple side dish that can be found on menus everywhere. But, if you're looking for a steakhouse-quality baked potato, there are a few things you need to know. First, you need to choose the right potato. Russet potatoes are the best choice for baking, as they have a high starch content that makes them fluffy and light. Second, you need to bake the potato at a high temperature. This will help to create a crispy skin and a tender interior. Finally, you need to load up your potato with your favorite toppings. Butter, sour cream, chives, bacon, and cheese are all classic options.
Check out the recipes below so you can choose the best recipe for yourself!

Steps:
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees with the oven rack in the middle. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Rub the potato with olive oil until it is well coated and sprinkle with salt and transfer to the parchment lined baking sheet. Roast the potato whole (don't poke any holes in it) until it is soft when you squeeze it with your hand. The baking time will depend on the size of your potato, but usually 45 minutes - 1 hour.
- When you take the baked potato out of the oven, drop it onto a plate or cutting board from 10" up. By dropping it, you loosen the inside of the potato so it is light and fluffy inside when you cut into it.
- Cut a slit down the length of the baked potato, pinch the edges together to make the opening bigger, and fill the baked potato with desired amount of the fillings.

STEAKHOUSE POTATOES ROMANOFF
They say what happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas, but that's mostly because people just don't remember exactly what happened. Well, the only thing I didn't forget was this special potato gratin that Chef John Schenk taught me how to make 10 years ago at his restaurant Strip House. Not only is it the soul mate of steak, but it's also a great side dish for big holiday gatherings since you can make it the day before and bake when needed.

- Always start with clean potatoes. Scrub them well with a brush and rinse them thoroughly.
- Pierce the potatoes with a fork several times before baking. This will help them cook evenly.
- Bake the potatoes at a high temperature (400 degrees Fahrenheit or higher) for a crispy skin and tender inside.
- Rub the potatoes with olive oil or melted butter before baking for a golden brown crust.
- Season the potatoes with salt, pepper, and your favorite herbs and spices before baking.
- For a loaded baked potato, top the potato with your favorite toppings, such as butter, sour cream, cheese, bacon, and chives.
