Baking the ultimate baked potato is easier and safer for your health with Spud Spikes® Baked Potato Nails. Made in the U.S., these sleek skewers are constructed of 100 percent 316 food-grade stainless steel and have the structural strength to pierce a potato. Spud Spikes help produce well-baked potatoes in less time because once they are inserted in potatoes and placed in the oven, they become instant heat conductors. Cooking time is reduced* because they disperse heat evenly throughout the potatoes. A conventional oven takes 90 to 120 minutes or longer to bake a potato, but Spud Spikes reduce that time to approximately 45 minutes or less. (*Reduced cooking time depends on potato variety and size, number of potatoes, method of cooking, and type of oven used—convection or conventional.)

Spud Spikes are not limited to potatoes. They also work great with sweet potatoes, yams, brats, and sausages. Use them in the oven or on the barbecue for cookouts, grilling, and steam-baking. Potato lovers will also find them handy for camping, tailgating, and RV trips.

To enhance the flavor of baked potatoes, try Spud Spikes® Gourmet Original Blend Potato Skin Rub and Everyday Seasoning with its unique blend of spices. Spray olive oil over an entire potato followed by a gentle sprinkle of seasoning to make the potato skin bake up crisp and flavorful. The result is the ultimate baked potato. Its zesty flavor and crispy skin make the entire potato enjoyable to eat. But don’t stop there—sprinkle the seasoning on brats and sausages before barbecuing to bring out their natural flavors. Spud Spikes Gourmet Original Blend Potato Skin Rub and Everyday Seasoning is also an all-around flavor enhancer to liven up soups and salads; hard-boiled eggs; steamed vegetables; steaks, chicken, fish, burgers, and ham; and even pizza. Spud Spikes Gourmet Original Blend Potato Skin Rub and Everyday Seasoning (net wt. 3.2 oz.) has an MSRP of $9.99.

A set of four 6-inch Spud Spikes comes packaged in a space-saving storage tube with cap and bilingual instructions to Baking the Ultimate Potato. Spud Spikes are easy to clean, dishwasher safe, and will not rust. Spud Spikes have an MSRP of $19.99.

Preparing the Potato

According to Leon Frechette, Spud Spikes co-developer, mastering the perfect baked potato is easy using the stainless steel nails. The secret to an all-edible potato is to get the skin crispy and flavorful. Choose widely available Russet baking potatoes about 5 in. long (roughly 12 oz). Preparation begins by scrubbing followed by thoroughly drying the potatoes. Prick the skins in several areas and then insert the stainless steel nail deep into one end of each potato so the point protrudes out the other end, about the same length as the nail head.

Hold the potato by the nail head and spray the entire potato with olive oil. Gently sprinkle the entire potato with the Spud Spikes Potato Seasoning. Place the potato onto a broiler rack sitting on a sheet pan covered with parchment paper and place the pan on the oven’s middle rack. Bake at 425°F to 450°F until done (approximately 35 minutes), turning the potato halfway through baking. Test the potato with a toothpick: if it easily pierces the potato to the Spud Spike, the potato is done. Spud Spikes® The Original Food-Grade Stainless Steel 6″ Baking Potato Nails and Spud Spikes® Potato Seasoning get the job done quicker, so check the potato after 30 minutes.
