Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 450℉.

Notes

  • I do not recommend storing these assembled. You can make everything ahead of time, but wait to assemble and reheat until you are ready to enjoy them. 
  • You can use your favorite method for baking the potatoes, it doesn’t have to be the oven. This is totally up to you.
  • The amount of sour cream, BBQ sauce, jalapenos, and salt/pepper is totally up to your preferences. Use as much or as little as you would like.
  • You can use your favorite shredded cheese. Cheddar, montery jack, and colby Jack are all great options.
  • Be sure to use your favorite BBQ sauce for this recipe as it will have a strong flavor presence.
