Advice needed for baking many potatoes
 

I would like some advice on baking a somewhat large quantity of
potatoes. I'm trying to bake 33 large russets in my oven, and it has
to be all at once because I don't have time for multiple batches.
Normally, for one or two potatoes, I bake at 400 for an hour.
I'm wondering how the increased quantity is going to affect this.
Should I bake at a higher temperature, or for longer time, or both?

Another consideration is that I only want them to be about 80 - 90%
done, as I will be re-heating them on a BBQ about 6 hours later.

Any suggestions for cook time & temperature?


Thanks,
Bj

Why? 4 or 40 should take the same amount of time. I'd bake them at a lower
temp so the skins don't get too crispy since you're going to put them on a
grill. 350 for an hour should get them to the 80 to 90% done stage you
want.
