Crockpot Baked Potato Tin-foil dinner

Ingredients
7-8 Russet Potatoes Washed and Scrubbed
2 Yellow Onions Diced or Shredded
2 Stalks of Celery thinly Sliced
3 Baby Carrots per Potato
8 Slices of Bacon cooked and Broken Up
3 Green Onions stalks sliced thinly
14-16 Small Pats of Butter (I did a 1/2 Tsp Each)
BBQ Sauce
Pam
Salt to Taste
Pepper to Taste
Foil (Foil for Grilling is Larger and Will Work Better For Large Potatoes)
Shredded Cheese
Instructions
  1. I used my kitchen table as the place for my assembly line.
  2. Cut a large enough piece of foil to cover not only the foil but all of the additions, don’t skimp.
  3. Spray with Pam or Crisco Spray so the potatoes don’t stick.
  4. Cut each potato into thirds, without cutting all the way through the potato.
  5. Pour a tablespoon of BBQ Sauce (or less if it’s a small potato) into the middle of the foil, then place the potato, with the slices open on top.
  6. Shove two pats of butter into the potato..
  7. Place shredded or chopped onion onto the potato.
  8. Place celery on top.
  9. Set carrots next to potato as well.
  10. Now give each potato a bit of green onion on top as well.
  11. Put 2-3 slices of bacon pieces on top.
  12. Finally sprinkle salt and pepper to taste on each potato.
  13. Fold up the foil so that none of the juices will leak out, it won’t look as smooth and pretty as when you normally foil a potato.
  14. Bake in your slow cooker for 8 hours on low.
  15. In my 7qrt Crock-pot I was able to fit 4 baked potatoes (with 2 of them very large), so plan accordingly..either using only small potatoes or using more then one crock.
  16. Once they have been cooked, pull each one out, unwrap a bit, place a handful of Shredded Cheese onto the potato, rewrap and place back in the crock for about 20 minutes, recover crock.
  17. Serve it in the foil.
Notes
Remember fit this recipe with your family size, or those you are serving. It’s easy enough to cook up a bit more bacon, and chop more onions, and vice versa! Enjoy.
