Grilled Bbq Potato Skins - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    3 russet potatoes, scrubbed
    4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
    2 tablespoons butter, melted
    1 garlic clove, minced
    3/4 cup cheddar cheese
    1/2 cup barbecue sauce, warm
    1/2 lb pulled pork
    sour cream, for topping
    2 tablespoons chives, fresh and chopped
Preparation
    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake potatoes on middle rack until fork tender, about 1 hour. Remove from oven and let sit until cool enough to handle. Bake 4 strips of bacon on a small sheet pan in the oven for 15 minutes. Crumble bacon when it has cooled.
    Preheat grill to medium heat. Cut potatoes in half lengthwise, and spoon out the flesh, leaving a half-inch shell. Melt the butter in a saucepan and add minced garlic. Brush potato shells with the butter and garlic mixture. Flip over and butter the bottoms. Place potatoes on grill and cook until crisp about 4-4 1/2 minutes on each side and remove from grill. Divide the cheese, bbq sauce, and pulled pork among the potatoes. Top potatoes with sour cream, crumbled bacon and chives for garnish.
    Note: use potato flesh for potato pancakes the next day.
