Start by lying your washed, unpeeled potatoes on a baking tray. 
Poke and bake them as you regularly do, until they're cooked and soft. 
Once they're baked, let them cool before you handle them. Now, cut off both the top and the bottom of each of your potatoes. 
Remove the meat inside the potato and reserve it, we're going to use it later! 
Now, the fun part. Wrap the potatoes up in bacon slices. Use as many as you need to cover the entire potato from the bottom to the top. 
Secure the bacon slices with the toothpicks. 
For the filling, combine the potato meat with sliced turkey breast, butter and spices. You could use any spices you like, but Karen & Andrew recommed rosemary, garlic and paprika as some of the the best flavor pairings for potatoes. Another twist you could give to this recipe is substituting the butter for olive oil. 
Alternate layers of the potato filling with shredded cheddar cheese. 
Top each one of your potatoes with some more shredded cheddar. 
Get your potatoes back in the oven for a few minutes. 
Before the last 5 minutes, take them out again and rub your favorite barbeque sauce over the bacon and the top of the potatoes and get them back in the oven. 
For the final touch, top your potatoes with sour cream, a little bit of hot sauce and sliced green onions. 
You can also top them with some bacon crumbs! 
Now, enjoy your bacon potato volcanos - if you're family and friends leave any for you to treat yourself. That's going to be a difficult task!
