Step 4
Use oven mitts to transfer the potatoes to a rimmed baking sheet. Let the potatoes cool slightly for 5 to 10 minutes. Turn grill temperature down to 375℉.

Cut the potatoes in half lengthwise, and scoop the potato flesh into a bowl leaving a 1/4” shell.
Step 6
With a mixer, whip on low speed for about 30 seconds. Slowly add the hot milk (start with 1 1/2 C then see if you need the remaining 1/2 C) and melted butter. Increase the speed to medium-high and whip until the potatoes are fluffy and smooth, 90 seconds to 2 minutes.
