    Do you put any water in the crockpot? I thought there had to be some kind of liquid in there. I would love to try this potato recipe. And welcome! lol

    This recipe for crockpot baked potatoes says no need to add water. "No need to add water to the bottom but to keep the bottom potatoes from burning rotate them OR add some crumbled foil on the bottom before you add the potatoes".

    Well that makes sense. I just always thought you had to have liquid int with no matter what you cooked.

    I had always thought the same about adding liquid to the crockpot. I had a feeling that the pot would crack if there wasn't any liquid in it but I guess not according to some of the recipes. Anybody ever have a crockpot crack on them?
