1. Preheat oven to 400F (200C). Line a baking sheet with silicone mat or parchment paper.
2. Prep the potatoes: scrub and wash the potatoes (I use the scratchy side of a sponge). Then, use a fork to poke a few holes into the potatoes.

3. Place potatoes on a baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 45 to 60 minutes, turning a couple times (baking time may vary depending on the size). The skins should be crisp and puffy and the potatoes tender when pierced with a knife.

4. Cook sausages by either boiling them for 5 minutes or baking them in the oven for 7-10 minutes until they are lightly golden brown and heated through.

5. Chop cooked bacon into small pieces and grate cheddar cheese.


6. Take a baked potato, using a knife, make a triangular cut in the middle of the potato, starting from one side and angling towards the center. This cut should resemble a wedge shape. Carefully remove the triangular wedge-shaped piece of potato to create a hollow space in the middle of the potato. Sprinkle a little bit of salt on the potato.

7. Place a cooked sausage snugly inside a baked potato, top with grated cheddar cheese, dollop on some sour cream, scatter some chopped bacon pieces, and finish it all off with a sprinkle of chives.

Repeat with the rest of the potatoes. Enjoy!
