Wash and scrub potatoes. Peel the top halves and carefully cut 1/8-inch slits in potatoes, approximately 3/4 of the way through – leaving the potato whole, with an accordion-like appearance. Submerge cut potatoes in ice water and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
In a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp House-Autry Southern Baked Pork Coating mix, butter, parsley and garlic salt; mix well and set aside. Remove potatoes from refrigerator and drain well. Place on a plate and microwave on the highest setting for 10-12 minutes, turning halfway through cooking. (Potatoes should not be completely cooked.) Cool slightly.
Preheat oven to 425°F. Once potatoes are cool enough to handle, smear butter mixture over the tops, separating the cuts slightly to ensure butter melts into the slits. Sprinkle with remaining House-Autry Southern Baked Pork Coating Mix. Place on a baking sheet that has been covered with aluminum foil and sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Bake 20-25 minutes, or until potatoes are soft in the middle and golden crunchy on the top. Serve immediately.
