Bake potatoes at 400 degrees until done, about 1 hour.

Cut potatoes in half lengthwise and scoop out pulp, leaving nice little boats.
Divide pulp in half, reserving half for other use.
Put a pat of butter in each shell.
Mash remaining potato pulp and mix with meat, onion, pepper, half the cheese and a spoon or two of the sour cream or yogurt.
Spoon mixture into each shell, leaving a well in the middle.
Divide remaining cheese into the wells and put a pat of butter on top.
Chill overnight.
Heat at 375 degrees until heated through.
Top with sour cream, bacon, and chives and serve with a nice green salad and a crusty bread.
