well, if by double baked potato you mean scooping out and refilling shells.......I like a thick skinned potato as it will hold up better to the handling than say a red skin or yukon gold.....your basic Idaho baking potato I think.

Any russet is best. They are the king of baking and mashing potatoes becasue of their starch content.

I always use Idaho russets for my twice bakeds. They hold up really well.
