Where can you cook your jacket potato if have no oven?

You can cook your jacket potato without an oven using a few different methods:

On the Stovetop:

* In a pot: Place the potato in a large pot with a lid, add enough water to cover it, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until tender, about 45-60 minutes, depending on the size of the potato.

* In a skillet: This is a more "dry" method. Pierce the potato with a fork a few times. Heat a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Add the potato and cook, turning occasionally, for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender.

Other Methods:

* Microwave: This is the fastest method, but may not result in the same crispy skin. Prick the potato a few times with a fork, then microwave on high for 5-8 minutes per potato, or until tender.

* Campfire: Wrap the potato in foil and bury it in hot coals. Cook for about 45-60 minutes, or until tender.

* Slow cooker: This is a great option for hands-off cooking. Pierce the potato a few times with a fork and place it in the slow cooker. Add a cup of water to the bottom of the slow cooker and cook on low for 4-6 hours, or until tender.

Tips:

* Prick the potato: This prevents the potato from exploding in the cooking process.

* Choose the right potato: Look for potatoes that are firm and free of blemishes. Russet potatoes are a good choice for jacket potatoes.

* Cooking time: Cooking time will vary depending on the size and type of potato, and the cooking method. Check for doneness by inserting a fork into the potato; it should slide in easily.
