Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
Wash the russet potatoes thoroughly and pat them dry with a clean towel.
Poke holes in the potatoes with a fork (about 4-6 per potato), to allow steam to escape during baking.
Rub each potato with olive oil and sprinkle with salt to give the skin a flavorful crust.
Place the potatoes directly on the oven rack and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the skin is crispy and the inside is tender when pierced with a fork.
While the potatoes are baking, cook the bacon in a skillet over medium heat until crispy. Once done, place on a paper towel-lined plate to cool, then crumble into small pieces.
Once the potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool for 5 minutes.
Slice each potato lengthwise down the middle to open them up slightly, then gently fluff the insides with a fork to create a soft texture.
Add 1 tablespoon of butter to each potato and let it melt. Follow by adding 2 tablespoons of sour cream to each potato.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese evenly across all the potatoes, followed by a generous portion of crumbled bacon.
Finish by garnishing with chopped chives and a light sprinkling of black pepper.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Texas Roadhouse-style loaded baked potatoes!
