Crispy cheese and bacon potato skins made extra tasty by brushing them with bacon drippings.

Cheese & Bacon Potato Skins - Extra bacon flavour, extra crispy and extra tasty!

I make my potato skins a little differently to the usual.

The key difference being that I like to brush the potato skins with bacon fat rather than butter.

Extra bacon flavour, extra crispy, and no wastage.
